We're Married!

Rosie and Dylan’s mutual friend Carly was visiting Denver for a week in August 2020. Rosie and Carly met up for a drink downtown at Dairy Block and Carly was invited over to Dylan’s place for some wine on his rooftop with a couple friends and she asked Rosie if she wanted to join! Rosie happily agreed! They went over to Dylan’s, were greeted by him and his dog Clarence, and joined the other friends on the rooftop for some delicious wine - Three Sticks - which is now Rosie’s favorite! Dylan asked for Rosie’s number and texted her the next day to see if she wanted to have dinner. Their first date was a drink at Forest Room 5 and dinner at Sushi Ronin on 9/4/2020. They have been together ever since and their wedding day is the anniversary of their first date, 9/4/2022!

Dylan and Rosie had planned a getaway weekend in Vail. After grabbing breakfast they started on the Booth Falls hike. It snowed earlier that week so conditions were a mix of snow and ice. Dylan wasn’t feeling 100% and Rosie said she was ok turning around if he wanted! But Dylan kept a positive attitude and they trekked on. There were times that they weren’t sure they’d make it to the falls on the snowy/icy trail but Dylan kept saying “maybe there’s a clearing where we can rest or sit down further ahead.” There was never a clearing ahead until they reached the falls! They finally reached the top and no one else was there. They had the falls to themselves and took in the view and then Dylan got down on one knee on the side of the mountain at 9,829 elevation and proposed - Rosie said yes! They had about 15 minutes just to themselves before the next hikers arrived and got to revel in engaged bliss! And then they had to hike all the way down in now snowy and muddy conditions!
