The Proposal

May 30, 2021

For years Sven has talked about getting water from a waterfall in the Misty Fjords. While on a camping trip with a group of our friends, we went up into Rudyerd Bay and right up to a waterfall. I scampered out onto the bow with an empty water bottle. Turning to tell Sven to hold onto my feet just in case I went overboard, my voice died in my throat because Sven was on one knee holding out an engagement ring. While Sven spoke from his heart, I was simultaneously laughing and crying through his entire proposal thinking "Is he serious? After all this time?" In fact, I was so overcome by what was happening I didn't even tell him yes right away. Our friends who had been watching and videotaping the entire thing are asking 'Did she say yes?" and Sven's answering "I don't know. She hasn't answered me." Well.... "Of course I'll marry you!"

For all the days along the way
