We told them not to rush b/c we don''t want them to mess anything up. And with the busy week I have and my FI has coming up (I coach cheerleading on top of teaching all day long) and my FI owns his own business....we know we won''t get back there until Friday at the earliest. We were both bummed...
7.gif
(me more than him..but he knew I was sooooo happy!) But we decided to celebrate and go out to a romantic dinner that night as our "proposal dinner" kind of thing. I thought it was sweet! :)

Besides, we''re HUGE gator fans and we have tickets for tomorrow so I wouldn''t dare ask him to miss it, since I know how much he loves it! Compromise I guess!!

To other things...that OEC is GORGEOUS!! Where do you find these things??? Your collection is to DIE FOR!!

So 7 days and counting to my RING!! WOHOO!!!!

Thanks Lauren! I''ve been a bit MIA for a while, but I was catching up on your LOGR thread - I really want to get one of his settings - yours are awesome!

I have one more pic they sent me, but the sapphire looks really dark in it so I won''t post it just yet. I''m sure I''ll be taking a TON of pics on Monday when it arrives!
 
Can''t wait to see them!! :)

The OEC is an Ebay find, of course, it''s uncertified so I''m doing as much due diligence as possible before I pull the trigger, but so far everything looks good.
 
Lauren, the oec looks gorgeous!! Hope it works out!

My rings have arrived and there is a thread posted in SMTR. Thanks for all of your support and patience while I waited!!

I know that feeling! I had a trip to New York and visit with family I hoped to have it for but no luck.... That was hoping for a miracle anyway. When I think of how long ago that was and I still don''t have it......... oh jeeeez this is so frustrating!!!

But I do really hope you get yours by then!
 
((HUGS)) Kelli - the end is near! And you''ll have the rest of your life to enjoy it!
 
Yes THANK YOU that''s what I need to keep reminding myself!!!
 
Thank you, LostSapphire and Emeralds! Fedex tracking is showing that it's on the delivery truck! Yay!

Dani and Emerald, I'm so excited for you guys - I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that you guys get extra-expedited, fast, efficient delivery!

Kelli, I'm sure you'll have updates soon, and I can't wait!

Oh I forgot to say, my JW morganite is on its way! The question is, will it arrive before I leave for NY on Wed. night??


UPDATE!!!! It's here! But I have no time to take pictures because I have to leave for class!!!

But it's here!
