Our engagement story. Jaime and Natalie were on their way to a New Years Eve party up north at Jaime’s friend’s cottage on the lake. The weather was beautiful, thick snowflakes falling from the white sky; you know those kinds of days, the days where you feel like lying in the snow and making a snow angel. Jaime and Natalie sat with his friends eating, drinking and laughing, then just a half an hour till midnight Jaime asked Natalie if she would like to go for a walk, Natalie said yes of course. So they bundled up and left the warm cozy cottage filled with the noises of merriment, to the peaceful quite of the winter wonderland that waited outside the door. The only sound that they could hear was the crunch, crunch of their feet in the snow below them as they took every step. They slowly walked hand in hand as they neared the lake at the end of the road. Jaime suggested that they travel out onto the lake, and of course Natalie said yes. So slowly and safely they traveled with her hand in his, out onto the frozen face of the lake, clearing the ice with their feet as they went. Now out in the open, fat snowflakes started to hit their faces as they looked up to the dark starry sky. As Natalie stood there staring at the nights sky, Jaime stood there staring at her. Jaime swung Natalie around to face him as he held her in his arms, and looking down at her caught his breath and said " I wish I had brought a ring" Natalie looked up at him with a question in her eyes and then Jaime, looking down at her said " I can't imagine spending my life with anyone else, I can't ever imagine being happier than when I’m with you! Will you marry me?” And of course Natalie said yes! With tears swelling in her eyes, and a smile touching her lips said “I have never been as happy in all of my life and I know it can only get better”. And then and there, on that lake in the powdery white snow, Jaime and Natalie shared a very hot kiss, in the very cold air that surrounded them.
