We met through mutual friends at the Boise Music Festival. Over a few months, Halie worked up the guts to message Cody on Instagram, but in a very low key, casual type of way... "Whale hello there", and WHALE, the rest was history.
We were driving back to Boise for Christmas and drove 18 hours straight, but little did Halie know... we were staying in Sun Valley for the evening. We stayed at a charming Inn and had a lovely dinner. We went outside in freezing weather & snow piled everywhere to stand under a beautifully lit tree... we were having our picture taken when Cody turned to Halie and got down on one knee. She said "Yes!" & we were engaged.
