So my little baby brother is going to get married! We are so excited and could not be happier! WE LOVE Tiffany! Here is a little recap of the engagement story.
My little brother Cameron has always been like a big kid to me. When we would go see Disney movies in the theater he would be laughing louder and more often than many of the little kids. I am starting this story with this because Cameron also has other traits of a little child. He is gets so excited when he has a special secret that he can hardly contain himself. He just can't keep it to himself and has to share. (These are actually some of my favorite traits of his)Anyway, about a month ago he said that wanted to propose to Tiffany. So, we all put our brains together and came up with a romantic and beautiful way to propose. During our family tree decorating party, when my Mom was handing out our yearly ornaments she would say she forgot Tiffany's and Cameron was going to say something along these lines. " I have one for her" He would then pull out a beautiful etched pewter ornament that would say " WILL YOU MARRY ME". So cute and sweet right? Well, this is where Cameron's excitement comes into play.
He could not keep his mouth quiet!!! One day when he was talking on the phone to Tiffany she told him that she didn't care how he proposed she just wanted it to be a surprise. So what does he do? He tells her how he is going to propose and when. Why? I don't know! She of course thought it was beautiful, but she wanted to be surprised Dang it! So anyway, we threw this idea out and went on to plan B.
Cameron decided that he would propose at his missionary reunion which was this last weekend. He arranged it all with his mission president that he would do it after the devotional. Then plan was that Cameron would pick up the food for the reunion(A Chilean woman was making empanadas) and then they would have Cameron and his girlfriend come up and thank them. Then Cameron would get up there and propose. Only, the lady who was making the empanadas didn't have them ready and Cameron and Tiffany had to wait while the food finished cooking. It took a really long time and they were afraid they would miss the entire reunion. They almost did! They got there for the last five minutes. Basically, in time for the closing remarks and prayer. Then his mission president said that they wanted to thank Elder Nieves and girlfriend for picking up the food. Then he told them to come up. Tiffany said she was wondering why in the heck they had to come up! But they did and then Cameron popped the question! And she said........YES!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!
I apoligize for these pictures. As we weren't there (thanks to my big mouthed little brother) I wasn't able to document this in the way I wanted to! Someone at the reunion took these with her camera phone.
