Jager had nonchalantly talked about hiking where he grew up at the bottom of McDonald Pass for a while. He found a day that the owners of his old house were in town and coordinated a time for us to hike! The night before Jager asked our roommate if he wanted to join us and Jessica was slightly annoyed thinking Jager ruined what was going to be a romantic hike. The next day we headed up the mountain! Jager was able to share childhood memories that happened in the area throughout the hike including the spot where his father's ashes are scattered. Jessica was completely oblivious when Jager asked Kerry to take their picture. Then and there Jager asked Jessica to spend the rest of her life with him! Jager had one more surprise up his sleeve when he told her that nobody knew he was going to propose but this was not the case. That same day they celebrated their engagement with a surprise engagement party!
