How it happened

May 20, 2019

Connor and Kellie had planned a trip to Napa with their parents to celebrate Kellie graduating cosmetology school and jumping into her career. Kellie thought it was her idea to go, little did she know, Connor had been planning to propose to her for months, and the whole family was in on the surprise. After a day of wine tasting, the families headed to Barnett Vineyards for an afternoon tasting on Spring Mountain. Meanwhile, Christian and Kate were on their way to meet them at the winery all the way from Southern California (Kellie was clueless). The group arrived at the property and were overjoyed to see beautiful sweeping views of the valley from atop the mountain. They were soon seated in front of the wine cave in front of the picturesque view. Moments later, Christian and Kate pulled up in a roaring Ford F-350. Connor began to panic at their loud disruptive behavior. Luckily, Kellie was clueless at their arrival. She soon got up from the table to find a restroom. While she was gone, Tammy, Tony, Chris, Carey, Kate, and Christian took their places behind a glass door to the wine cave where they had the perfect view. When Kellie returned, she noticed that everyone had vanished and that only Connor remained. Confused, she asked where their families had gone. “They went inside, they were cold,” remarked Connor, with urgency. Once again, Kellie was clueless and thought nothing of it. Seconds later Connor took Kellie by the hand, walked her to the edge of the terrace, bent down on one knee, presented her with a stunning Morganite, solitare, engagement ring and asked her to marry him. “Of course!” She replied overwhelmed with joy. And at that same moment Christian and Kate appeared from the cave to capture the beautiful moment forever. They celebrated with a bottle of 2015 Barnett Rattlesnake at Bottega for dinner.

The begining

June 25, 2015

Connor and Kellie don’t quite remember when they first met, as they had grown up together for years, attending the same schools and church. As Kellie puts it, “I didnt know which one he was for most of my life!” because Connor is an identical twin. They really started to build a friendship when they served in the worship ministry for their high school group at Canyon Hills Friends Church in Yorba Linda. Soon after that, during Kellie’s senior year of high school and Connor’s Junior year of high school, Connor convinced Kellie to sign up for the Church’s annual mission trip to their sister church in Juarez, Mexico. Kelllie surprised herself when she immediately agreed. A few months later they were on a plane to El Paso. Over the course of the trip, God began to shape their lives like bever before and they connected with Him and eachother in a new and exciting way. In that week Connor began to see a future with Kellie and they both felt sparks. They went on their first date on June 25th to Disneyland. Connor and Kellie spent the day roaming around the park and only ended up riding a couple rides because they kept getting lost. For dinner they ordered pulled pork sandwitches (one of their faves) and watched the boats float along the river. Before they left the park, they joined the crowd on Main Street to watch the firework show! Hand in hand they watched as magnificent sparks lit up the sky and “snow” drifted through the air. Connor took this as the perfect opportunity to make it “official”. Connor turned to her and said “will you be my girlfriend?” Muffled by the loud crashes of the fireworks, Kellie couldn’t hear him so she replied with an inquisitive “what?” Connor laughed and repeated himself, this time louder, “WILL YOU BE MY GIRLFRIEND?!” Kellie’s face lit and her smile stretched across her face, “YES!” she replied. The two of them embraced and shared a kiss. And just as they looked up, a heart shaped firework exploded above them.
