I''m back from Virginia and......

[luckystar112]

I am ENGAGED!!!!!!

We had the best time, just hanging out by the lake with family and soaking up the hot sun.
My boyfr....fiance (hehe)....asked me at 4:30am RIGHT before we left to go to the airport. I think he was afraid of the metal detector going off or something. Wait...did I say he asked me? Well, more like he gave me the ring with a huge grin on his face, but forgot to say the four little words that I''ve been pining over for the last two years!!! ("Will you marry me" for those that don''t know. lol)
So there he is, ring in hand, huge smile on his face. I''m staring at the ring...looking at his grin....looking at the ring....at his grin....finally I''m like, "Does the ring come with anything?" (LOL) and he goes, "Oh yeah! Will you marry me?"
We got a big laugh out of it. Hey...it was 4:30am!
It was cute and so totally us. And I got to look at sun-induced flashes of fire while on the plane. It was so gorgeous.
I''ve had five days to take photos, but I''ll give you a sneak peak at one of them before I''m off to SMTR to post the rest. I hope you enjoy.

[happilyeverafter]

Wow, beautiful! It looks perfect on your finger, like it belongs there!

Congrats!!!

 

[luckystar112]

sap-- There you are! It was totally worth the (long...very long) wait! Have you and your guy picked a date yet? I saw that there was a question mark next to your name under the brides in waiting list...

Happilyeverafter- Thank you so much for the ring compliment! I love the way it looks on my finger also. Substantial, yet not over the top for my 24 year old finger. I stare at it pretty much all day, every day! lol.

 

[sap483]

Nope, not yet. We''re debating between a place in Newport, RI or a destination wedding in Bermuda. We were just in Bermuda last week checking out some places! We''ve been pretty busy lately too- we bought another house and are in the process of fixing it up. That''s why I haven''t been on the boards much lately. I check in periodically though to see how some of my favorite ladies are doing- and admire the new bling! I''ll be seeing you on the Brides boards!
