The best stories begin when we are living our day to day. Chad delivered ice cream for years, Caitlin always gives her work her focus. Yet it was during normal business with ice cream that something sweet started to form. What started out as simple banter, (fudge) rippled into a spark. It could have been because Chad was stuck in a rut, or because Caitlin can sometimes be a firestick. Their first date was simple, 4 wheeling at Dailey Lake in hopes of seeing some mountain berries or some moose tracks.To their surprise and delight, time together went just peachy. That first date rippled into more & soon they found themselves putting miles down on the (rocky) roads together. Even though Chad can be a coconut, Caitlin saw through it and started to fall in love with his sweeter side. He enjoyed introducing her to his hobbies, showing her his various jobs & introduced her to his family (who can be royally nutty). And boy did Caitlin know how to get to Chad’s heart. FOOD. She got to show off her culinary training by taking flavors (like pumpkin and pistachios) & turning them into amazing dishes. Their dates exposed their common interests. As time passed, they continued to have a (java) blast together. As Chad prayed about it, it became clear to him where he hoped the rainbow would end. A plan began to churn. And just as their relationship started, the drive that day was going to be on a scenic (rocky) road. Driving along the moose moss & huckleberry bushes, Chad made a stop on a little dirt road. With 360* views & a specially made box in his pocket, Chad asked Caitlin to get out of the car (despite the temperature cold enough to freeze ice cream). He got down on one knee & with a squeal & a wholehearted “YES”, it is easy to say that Chad has hit a graham slam. Their story started off with them living their day to day, & now we get to celebrate them coming together for all their days to come.
