Engagement!!!

Becky and I are engaged!!! It's getting easier to say "My fiancee"... :) I proposed to Rebecca (aka Becky) DeJong up in the majestic mountains of Mineral King in CA. She, of course, had her suspicions, however I was able to keep her at bay until the moment of, leaving her pretty much speechless. We hiked up to Groundhog Meadow with my cousin John and his family (Holly and Cayley). We had a nice lunch with some deer grazing nearby. I conveniently "relieved myself" / scouted the area for a good spot. Then everyone else discretely disappeared. I had found a nice lookout of the Mineral King Valley and so asked her if she would like to see a cool view. We hiked up the mountain a little ways and after commenting on the view I proposed. Well, as they say, the rest is history and we are now well into planning the Wedding. We have an amazing amount of stuff done as she already had a lot of great ideas. Good thing too because the wedding is April 19, 2008 and there are only

A very happy Becky showing off the ring! As this was near to the end of our trip, she pretty much thought it wouldn't happen this trip. I just had to find the right moment.

There was some very nice water falls in the area, so of course had to take advantage of them. Unfortunately this is snow melt, so you can imagine what she is thinking inside...

And here is the typical Mineral King view on a bridge on the way to trail parking. It is really pretty, even in a drought year.

At the cabin the day we left. What an amazing trip this was. We saw a ton of family (some new for Becky) and in a blink of the eye started the process of interweaving our lives together...forever.
