I have had the best weekend, even better than last weekend! I am so blessed! On Thursday Chad and I drove down to his parents' house and we had a great evening with his family there. And then on Friday morning we got up early and drove to Zion National Park and hiked Angel's Landing so we could get to the top before sunrise. At the top Chad surprised me and proposed!! And of course I said yes! It was so incredibly beautiful and perfect. I couldn't be happier. The rest of the day we hiked other smaller hikes together and I am so in love. Later that night his siblings Jon and Caytee joined us and we had a great evening together and then camped there overnight. The next day we hiked the Emerald Pools. Zions is so, so beautiful! And then we went to St. George and played tennis together and then had dinner with his parents and grandma. And this morning we had a lovely dinner with his parents (they are so, so good to us!!) and then drove out and visited with the Payson clan (who have hosted our dating--big thanks to you!) before having a nice dinner with my mom and grandparents and cousin. Wow! I am so excited to marry Chad, and I am so excited to be a part of Chad's family and for Chad to be a part of my family. Here are some pictures from our weekend:
We started our hike super early while it was still dark, and so luckily Chad had a head lamp and bought me one too.
Angel's Landing--it's super scary for people who are afraid of heights such as I!
After Chad proposed we watched the sun rise. We are so happy!!
I'll post more pictures of the weekend later!
P.S. Kim, could you invite me to view your blog? I would love to read it!

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! Remember before your first date with Chad, I said something like, "Keep me updated on this because I think you guys will totally like each other!" You guys are perfect for each other! We are all so happy for you! And Chad, A+++ on that proposal. What an awesome weekend!
Abbi, you and Chad are a perfect for each other, and you are a perfect fit into the Cox family! We loved you from the minute we met you, but you already knew we were all big fans of you!!! It is so wonderful to see Chad SO happy. I think he would agree that you were definately worth the wait! We love you and Congrats a hundred times over!!!
