On April 7, 2023 Kevin had this beautiful evening planned to surprise Lily. Unfortunately, she couldn’t handle not being in control of the evening so took over the plans and invited her mother and brother into town. Kevin was persistent to take the dogs to raccoon river for a walk, after Lily kept changing his evening plans. Kevin wanted to show Lily’s little brother the secret spot where the dogs could go swimming. As she was throwing sticks for the dogs to chase, Kevin got down on a knee. He begins to tell her how we met in this exact spot 3 years ago. We fell in love during the pandemic when the world shut down and all we could do is walk around raccoon river together. We would bring the dogs swimming, have picnics, go on walks and spend hours getting to know each other here. It only made sense that we would get engaged in our special spot.
