Joel planned a Sunday morning hike at Vasquez Rocks with Lexi and Nakia. Lexi almost didn't want to get out of bed, and Joel was adamant that they hike that morning. He had enlisted his coworkers to get footage of the proposal and they were waiting for them to arrive. When they arrived, they hiked for a bit and when they got to the top, Joel got down on one knee and asked Lexi to marry him. Both on cloud nine, they hiked back down to the car so they could go share the exciting news.
