We met at a wedding reception in South Dakota. Blane's dad suggested a conversation starter, so I made the first move. After a few minutes of talking, we promised each other a dance before the night was over. We ended up learning how to do Scottish dances and sharing songs we wrote all night. We haven't stopped being together since!
Blane picked a beautiful blue sky day - the day after Valentine's Day - to propose. He came with me to the ranch I grew up on, and after a short hike up a snow-covered sagebrush hill, he asked me to be his wife! With a last minute plan, pristine scenery, and a perfect ring, it couldn't have been better!
