Our Wedding

Kevin and Cara met at the Gooding Pro Rodeo, in Gooding, Idaho on August 20, 2021 two weeks after Cara started working to deliver parts for Jerome Peterbilt, where Kevin had been working for 4 years previously. Kevin recognized Cara on the dance floor immediately. Kevin's great friend Josh Holt was with Kevin that evening and they talked about how Kevin wanted to talk to this gal, so Josh encouraged him to go talk her. Kevin worked up the courage and after a short conversation, they danced and the end of the evening Kevin gave Cara his phone number. She waited and texted him the next day.They talked for a week or so and went on our 1st "unofficial date" out to Lilly Grade on the SXS on September 11, 2021. Things were going well, and within a month on the weekend of October 10, 2021, they took the camper, that Kevin bought from his dad, and went on an adventure to Stanley, Idaho and they spent the night in Cara's families annual camp spot for the Idaho State Bowhunters Jamboree when she was growing up.After discovering they were each others other half, Kevin asked Cara to be his Lady on September 29th, 2022.Aside from the SXS ride to Lilly Grade or Shawn and Candace Hite’s wedding on October 1st, 2022, what these two call their "first date" led them to the Yankee Fork- Gold Dredge where low and behold they found themselves engaged on September 1st, 2025!The rest is history, In 2023 Cara moved in with Kevin and the pups. Then, Halloween of 2024, after a long hot and strenuous summer building a horse shelter and replacing barbed wire fence around the whole property, they finally moved Cara's horses "Rein" and "Zipp" over to the house in Buhl.To say the least, taking and giving second chances is not always a bad idea with the right person!September 1, 2025 in the control room of the Yankee Fork Gold Dredge in Stanley/Custer Idaho, on the last tour of the 2025 season, Kevin asked Cara to marry him and without hesitation she said, “ OH MY GOD YES!” and nearly tackled him off of his one knee.At the end of the tour as they had walked around the gift shop, exhilarated by what just happened, Cara told the three woman (Michelle, Lisa and Darla and their significant others Robert, Rick and Dave) who were all volunteers that were getting ready to close the dredge for the season. Once the proposal had been told, they were astatic to hear the great news. The ladies demanded to go upstairs and reenact the proposal to get pictures and document the life changing moment. It was a great experience all around.Before the Williamson's to be left Robert, who the couple had talked to on their tour, gifted Cara and Kevin a lifetime membership to the Dredge. FREE tours for life baby!!As Cara and Kevin walked out of the dredge, Cara heard one of the gals state, "What a great day, a great end to the 2025 tour season and great beginnings for a beautiful couple!”Cara and Kevin's relationship and bond are second to none! These two cannot wait for what the future holds for them, it will be an amazing way to make Williamson/Malone family history!!Join them for their wedding celebration 08.15.26 at the Central Idaho 4-H Camp.
