June 22, 2020 - The day our lives changed forever, one chapter closed, another chapter beginning.

2020 was a YEAR. The start of a global pandemic that no one knew anything about or what would be happening. Having just cancelled a dream trip to Hawaii that we had been planning for over a year we were more than bummed out as anyone could imagine. Trying to just find things to look forward to and memories to make Will had come up with the idea of taking a private chartered plane trip to Sulphur Creek Ranch, located in the Frank Church Wilderness. The only way to get there was to either fly, horse back ride, or hike in.

We finally had something to look forward to again as the world became more and more uncertain. Being very 2020 though of course the weather decided to not cooperate with us and we had to reschedule not once, not twice, but three times. Finally though- we made it! Like little kids on the morning of Christmas we were headed off to the hanger of SP Aircraft.

As we took off in the single engine, 3-passenger Cessna 172, the views of Downtown Boise and the Sawtooth Mountains were breathtaking and we were having the time of our lives! When you fly into Sulphur Creek Ranch there really is no way to describe the experience and beauty that it has to offer- words don't do it justice, it's just something you have to experience. Upon arrival you are served a gourmet breakfast and get to enjoy the surroundings views on the patio and enjoying the company of other guests & pilots.

Breakfast is right when things started to get weird and Jordan could tell something was up with Will. He was acting "different" and couldn't sit still. She wasn't quite able to put her finger on it and thought maybe it was the adrenaline of the flight or something, so she attempted to shrug it off.

We finally were done with breakfast and were able to go exploring around the ranch. There was a trail that wrapped around a small lake that let you enjoy the views of the mountains and we started to adventure off on that. We found a small spot to stop at and to just soak in the views and the experience we were having, but Will started acting unusual again. He kept scratching his leg and Jordan wasn't sure what in the world he was doing because it was just WEIRD.

Will asked Jordan to turn around and get the champagne out of the small cooler we packed so we could toast to a great adventure. The thought of champagne was enough of a distraction so she turned around and started to fumble with the champagne bottles. Will was no where to be found so Jordan just assumed he was still working on that weird leg itch that he had or tying his shoe or who knows what.

Finally though she heard her name and turned around and there he was down on one knee with the box open displaying the most GORGEOUS diamond ring that you have ever seen and the words "Will you marry me?" came out. It was an instant yes and the start of something amazing.

The plane ride home was almost silent as we just held hands and enjoyed the views while the excitement from the best day of our lives only grew.
