My Ring Pictures!!

[AmberWaves]

Albi, you think that''s bad? Please. I bought these girl scout cookies (the ones with that''s a regular cookie dipped in chocolate on one side) and I took two of those, roasted some mini marshmallows over the stove and made Fat-Girl smores. SOOOO bad. It was even funnier, because I told my BF about it, and he laughed at me. The next day, I came home and he had made some too!

About Disneyland, I know it''s going to be sweet no matter what, he''s just the sweetest guy. Oh, I get excited just thinking about it!! I love Disneyland!!! And diamonds!! And Days off work!

Hehehe, that is awesome!!! I want that! BUT...for you at least it''s just taking your medication!

Also...begin the SEVEN DAY countdown!!!!!!!!

ONE WEEK FROM TODAY!!!!!!!!!!

 

[akw94]

Wow, just one week to go! I am so excited for you Amber!
I like living through other people b/c I actually feel more relaxed and can focus on someone other than myself for awhile. I think I am going to try and de-obsess a bit on the topic of proposals (for myself)...at least for a few weeks!

 

[SeattleSparkle]

YAY!! Only one week!! I can''t wait to hear how he proposes (and to see how that ring looks on your hand!) ... I hope you have a fantastic "proposal prepping" weekend!!!

 

[AmberWaves]

Yep, 7 more days!! And this weekend we''re spending at a beach house with his mother and nephews, so it''s going to be a busy weekend!! I am so excited. Only a week to go! And I am STARVING!! Not even 9am (l.A. time) and I want something to munch on!

 

[anchor31]

YAY!! 7 DAYS!!! And you''ve got a great weekend ahead of you, lucky girl!

Eat more cookies!!

And this weekend sounds great! But.....not quite as great as MARCH 31!!!!!

OHHH NOOO I just realized I''m going out of town next weekend!!! I''m totally going to have no PS access until the Monday after!!!!

I wanna see the pics and here the storyyyy!

 

[AmberWaves]

Well, you all will kill me probably, but I may not be able to post until next Monday anyway! I mean, pictures!! Wait- next Sunday I will be with my Dad, so I can do it then!! I''m excited. But now i''m a ltitle sick, I ate too much mexican.

EBree, you think you danced? I woke up this morning (after a bad dream- Paul has chosen my cousin over me!!

So I was kickin'' her butt) and went into the bathroom where Paul was showering

(poor guy has no privacy), and did a little jig and said, guess what we''ll be doing at this time next week?!?!?! He was like, hmm... I dunno...

I yelled, "We''re going to Disneyland!! And I''m getting my ring!!!'' I''ve got to admit this one thing, I was hoping he''d do it this weekend, so it''s a little more a surprise, but now I don''t really care... I just love him!

 

[AmberWaves]

Okay, 4 more days!! Not including today, of course. No proposal at the beach house, but my god it was nice there!!! Anyway, few more days to go!

 

[SoonIHope]

FOUR!!!!!!!!!! THAT IS SUCH A TINY NUMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[AmberWaves]

I know!!!! And I''m trying to get a day in my hair stylists, maybe Wed. or Thursday or Saturday! I''m going to get it cut, and colored! So excited!! Do you think it would be terribly terribly wrong to remind him Friday am before we leave to make sure he has the ring? I always pack the night before, and I have no idea where he hid it. What should I do?

 

[SoonIHope]

Hehehe, good idea on the hair! Sooo exciting!!!

And since I also knew my boyfriend would be proposing over the next couple of days when we were on a trip, and I doubted his packing abilities, I just said things like, "you''re sure you have everything IMPORTANT that you need for the week? You definitely packed EVERYTHING YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE over the course of the week?" I think it annoyed him a little

, but since I didn''t explicitly sayyyyyy anything, he couldn''t vocalize an objection.

So maybe try to be a little more subtle than I am, but it never hurts to give them a little nudge to make sure they don''t forget!!

FOUR DAYS FOUR DAYS FOUR DAYS!

Man, I totally feel like I must be getting (re-)engaged at the end of these four days; my level of excitement is kinda scary.

 

[AmberWaves]

Albi, I don''t know if I can take it, four days! It''s so funny, yesterday morning my BF and I were sharing a lounger on the deck of the Malibu house, and next to us was his mom, and she grabbed my ring finger and said, "How''s this finger feeling?" and then laughed, and I said, "Well, it''s feeling a bit naked, and would like some jewelry to spice it up a bit!". My boyfriend just laughed and shook his head. I told him yesterday, "A week from now I''ll be engaged!!" He was like, "I know!!" I''m so happy. Mostly because I LOVE Disneyland. Honestly, it''s just gotten so much better since I''ve gotten older. Now I can appreciate things, and really just walk around knowing how fantastic the place is. And I really can''t wait to just be engaged. I mean, I think I''ll put off wedding plans for a few months (knowing me, it''ll be weeks), and just enjoy all of our hard work and faith it took to get here.

Last night I had a dream that I had my e-ring on, (and it was the exact one I have now! I have a good memory!) and it was too tight, but I didn''t want to take it off.

Lame

 

[SeattleSparkle]

Albi, I echo your shared excitement!! Yay!! Its soooo close and I too love Disneyland. That finger will be clothed in no time Amber!! Yay!!

 

[AmberWaves]

Seattle, thanks! I know yours is coming soon, too! Radiants Unite!!!!

 

[anchor31]

OMG four days!! You must be dyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyying!!! I''m so excited for you!!

 

[AmberWaves]

Anchor, it''s killing me.

Sometimes I think, oh what the hell. I just want it now. But then I want something to tell the grandkids, and not "Well, I picked out the ring, and he gave it to me when we got it."

 

[SoonIHope]

THREE THREE THREE THREEEEE!!!!

 

[AmberWaves]

Yep!!! Three more days!! He told me this morning that he may not be home for the 4th of July, and I was like, WHAT? And then he said, Hey, Disneyland in three days!! I was like, no go Buddy. Don''t try to distract me! It''s all rainy and cruddy here, but it''ll be perfect for Friday- smog free!! Can''t WAIT!! I was looking for the ring a little bit last night.

I ddin''t find it, but I didn''t look too hard.

 

[SoonIHope]

Haha, my fiance does that all the time, it''s soooo annoying!!!! Says something which he knows will be really disappointing to me, and is then like "but we''re going to get maaarrriiiieed because I love you soooo muuuuch!" in this irritating fake voice, but he still MEANS it so you can''t REALLY be mad, but it''s just soooo manipulative!!!!!

But STOP LOOKING FOR IT!!!! You''re sooo close to having it for real, just wait it out!!!! THREEE DAYYYYS!!!!!

 

[anchor31]

*is bouncing around*

Three three three three!!! Heee!!

 

[AmberWaves]

It''s so funny, my boss came in this morning and said, "So? Three days until ring day!!" Sometimes she seems more excited than I am! I was just sitting here thinking, thank god, only two and a half more days until Disneyland. Only 2.5 days of work!! It seems like these three days were harder than the last two years! I wonder if it''s harder to wait knowing the exact day, or if it''s harder to not have the ring in-house and not know anything!

 

[SoonIHope]

TOMOOOOOORRRRROWWWWW TOMORRROOOWWWWWWW

I seriously might have to sneak onto my friend''s computer to see if you post your story/ring shots over the weekend....

I cannot imagine how excited you must be!!!!!!!!! SOOOOOO CLOOOOOOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[AmberWaves]

I know!! One more day of work (I''m already here!) and then it''s Disneyland and Ring Day!!!! It''s supposed to be a 30% chance of rain tomorrow- perfect!! People will stay home, and I''ll be able to enjoy Disneyland!!I am so excited... Ring time!!!

 

[Caribou]

Your getting engaged in 3 days!?!??!?!?!?!?!?

OMG, this is going to be the longest 3 days of your life!!!

Have fun in Disney!!!!!

 

[AmberWaves]

Caribou, actually, I''m getting engaged TOMORROW!!!

It''s all been taking so long but then also speeding up! I have a feeling today is going to be the longest day of work EVER.

It''s so funny, we''ve only had the ring for a week and a half (and actually, the 10 day test period is up today!!) I should have checked out the ring yesterday to "make sure" it''s still okay.

I have no idea where boyfriend hid the ring. You know what''s funny? Lately he''s been referring to his "future wife" and that as my "future husband" he gets to do all sorts of stuff. I''m so excited. A day off, Disneyland, my boyfriend, my RING (!!!!!!!!!!!), and payday all on the same day!!! EEEEE!!!!!!!

 

[anchor31]

Wow, today has got to be the longest day of your life!! TOMORROW!! EEEEEEE!!! HAVE FUN!!

 

[SeattleSparkle]

YAY!! Tomorrow!! Eeeek! I''m sooo excited!! That radiant will finally make it to its proper home! Your finger!! Have a fabulous day at Disneyland tomorrow!! I can''t wait to hear all about it!

 

[Rhapsody]

Just wanted to chime in and say good luck sleeping tonight!

I hope you have a fabulous time at Disneyland and can enjoy the park while waiting for the proposal. I think even Mr Toads Wild Ride couldn''t distract me from that excitement! Although, I think I remember the Peter Pan ride as being my favourite. You''ll have to give it a spin for me!

Have a wonderful day tomorrow. I''ll be eagerly awaiting pics this weekend!
