BIG news!!
WE'RE ENGAGED! Michael proposed on christmas eve...and he totally surprised me. We've been dating so long (over 6 years) that I didn't think he could surprise me. I mean, I picked out the ring months ago, so I knew it would be coming, but he always said he wouldn't do it on a holiday! And I really believed him, lol! He was supposedly going to be working all night christmas eve...but somehow he got off around midnight instead and we exchanged our gifts. After we were done he said, "I did get you one other little thing..." and when he pulled the box out of his pocket I just stared at it in utter shock and disbelief. All I remember after that is throwing my arms around him and crying quite a bit, hehe! I even forgot to say "yes" in all the excitement! But I think he got the point. ;)
Oh, I'm so happy we can finally start booking things! We've been unofficially planning for so long that I can't wait to really do it. We're hoping we can set the date for June-ish, supposing everything's not already booked.
And the ring...I'm so in love with it. It has an antique-style setting and it's just perfect for me (of course, I did pick it out!). I don't have a lot of "real" jewelry, and nothing so beautiful and...sparkly. Michael's afraid I'll get in a wreck because I keep staring at it instead of the road, lol! *gazes at it adoringly for the thousanth time*
I am a very lucky woman... :)
