Reena, I am so happy for you!!!!

These first few days after you are engaged are a GREAT time in your life! Enjoy every mintue of it. Have a great time in California!

Can''t wait to hear the story, see the pics...... and then start kvetching about the wedding planning.

You truly have my best wishes. (BTW, where are the Velter and Sophia while you are out in CA?, do they know what''s going on?)

 

[hoorray]

Hooray Reena!

Best wishes on your engagement! I can''t wait to see your ring. Have fun in So Cal. The Montage is a beautiful place. Are you still there or moved on to San Diego?

 

[reena]

hi, we are no longer at the montage

but i wish we were! that place is fantastic. we are now back in SD because we have interviews this week. cross your fingers for us!

velter and soph are at home being dogsat by my younger sister. they have been told the news and are very happy to hear that they will not be illegitimate dog-children for much longer.

velter wouldn''t admit it, but i think he might be a little bummed that HE can''t marry me.

[golden_eyes]

Congratulations, Reena!

I must have first started visiting Pricescope when you first got your Cushion. I''ve been following your story (and those of all the other ladies in waiting since then...

BEST WISHES for you and your new fiance - I can''t wait to see the pics! I''m always struck by how identical our tastes are...

{Deciding to stop being so shy and start posting more ;}

I used to have really pretty nails until we were told we had to wait until the fifteenth..

Hope it flies by fast! My nails can't take much more chomping!!!

Good luck with the interviews!!!!!

 

[golden_eyes]

This isn''t it, is it? I went to www.artofplatinum.com to see if I could sneak a peek

and I fancied this one looks new...

[Yes

, it IS something when you know Leon''s site well enough to think something''s changed - not sure if it''s good or bad

]

Thoughts?

 

[sevens one]

OMG--- is THAT it??? How cool (if it is)
Nothing gets past you Golden Eyes

 

[Libster]

Reena, Good luck on the interviews!!!!!!

I love the west coast and have been trying to get hubby to find a job out there somewhere. I''m fortunate that I work for a Company that doesn''t care where I live, since I have a home office and clients nationwide. I was searching for what type of income we would need to live in the LA area and keep the same standard of living. We would need to make double what we do now!!!! Needless to say we are staying put for now and just visit the west coast from time to time

I really can''t wait to see the ROCK

 

[slammie]

Oh Reena, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

I''ve just put in a reminder on the 15th on my calender to do continual checking into PS for a glimpse at your ring…I am counting the days!!!! Oh yeah, and good luck with the interviews!! Make sure you highlight your photoshop skills too!!

 

[sevens one]

Here are some pictures of the Montage- where it all happened. (I want to go there too)

Ooooo La La! Lucky gal. I bet you never wanted to leave this place.

 

[alexah]

YAAAAAAAY REENA!!!!!!!!!

I'm sooooo happy for you girl!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!

And what a fabulously romantic story - Brad gets *my* approval

I can't imagine how absolutely gorgeous the ring came out

Enjoy the rest of your trip - good luck w everything!!!

and hurry home to us so we can get a glimpse of your stunning rock

 

[JCJD]

CONGRATULATIONS REENA AND BRAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, good luck on your interviews, don''t blind your potential future employers with your new sparkly stunner (might be a bad career move there...

), relax and enjoy your time in Cali, but when you get back to NY,


SHOW US THE ROCK!!!!!!!!!! ASAP!!!!!!!!! And tell Soph and The Velter congrats on their soon-to-be-legitimate status from my Kitty Cats in Waiting (Katie and Sammy)!

 

[memsy]

Congrats Reena!!

where is the ''story''? i feel like i missed it somewhere...

cannot wait to see the pics! good luck on your interviews too! have you guys taken the cali bar yet? (forget it, don''t even think about bar exams right now- just enjoy!!)

 

[reena]

hi all,

the ring is close to the one posted but it's really based on this one (three sided pave, more rounded, and with the detailing on the underside, which is my favorite part!):

but it looks so much more delicate and beautiful in person.

goldeneyes: beautiful ring! we really DO have the same taste!

nan--thanks for posting the pics of the montage!!!!

 

[fancyrock]

ok, Reena, if you can post you can TELL your engagement story. so.... TELL!!!

C''mon....

we are all ears!!!
