Our Engagement

Our engagement took place on the annual camping trip Drew's family takes every year with many of their family friends to Lake Millerton, CA. Drew has been going to this lake every summer for most of his life and eventually he started taking Devyn every year as well and this was her 5th year at the lake. It was the second to last day of the trip and everyone was outside eating breakfast when Drew's daughter Ashlynne came up to Devyn and said "I need to show you something in the camper....NOW!". Devyn said "What is it?" and Ashlynne said "Just come see!". So Devyn followed her into the camper they were staying in and Ashlynne proceeded to show her an empty ring box and said "Look what I found in my dad's bag!" Devyn was a bit confused and panicked at what she was seeing thinking Ashlynne may have ruined her dad's surprise so she told Ashlynne they need to put it back and go back outside. So Ashlynne went outside and Devyn turned to put the ring box back in Drew's bag. When she opened the camper door to go back outside, there was Drew waiting on bended knee for here to come down the steps. He proposed and she said yes! A couple hours later Drew surprised Devyn again when her mom and brothers arrived at the lake to spend the day with them. That night everyone celebrated the engagement with dinner and a ring shaped cake. It was an amazing trip that ended in an amazing engagement.
