It's Finally Official!!!

IT'S OFFICIAL!!!

J finally proposed last night!!! Yay! I pretty much knew it was coming, but it doesn't make it any less exciting for me.

It turns out that he actually got me my second choice ring. At first, I was a teeny bit disappointed, but I'm so thrilled that it's official that I don't care anymore. I think this ring suits me well. In fact, it'll go really well with the channel set wedding band I want...they'll complement each other nicely!

Here's a pic!!!

We have to have it sized, though. It's a bit too small and uncomfortable on my finger. Unfortunately, it's going to take them a week to do it. :( So, we're going to drop it off tomorrow afternoon. I want to wear it tonight when the girls come over so I can tell them the good news!

Now all the ideas I've been posting about can come to fruition. I can actually plan, not just talk about planning!

Yay! I think we found my ring...

J and I looked at rings on Saturday. I think I found the one I want. I hope it's the one he buys!It's really just a plain old round solitare set in white gold, but I really fell in love with it when I tried it on.

When I went to their website to find this pic, I also saw a wedding band that I really like...

I think it'll look stunning next to the engagement ring. I was thinking of using my grandmother's wedding band...until I saw this one!

I haven't forgotten about J. We both like the black titanium one I showed him, but it's a bit more than we wanted to spend on the bands. Turns out the same ring is availble by Littman for half the price of the first one I saw! Yay!

Engagement Dream

I had a dream last night that J proposed. The way he did it was very...uneventful. He just kind of put a box in my face, opened it, and asked me if I'd marry him. It didn't seem to matter though. I asked him if he was serious...finally! Then, I looked at the ring as we put it on my finger. It was...UGLY. I mean, super-ugly. The ugliest ring I'd ever seen. LOL.

It was this huge, thick, wide, heavy gold men's ring with 3 diamonds in a diagonal pattern across the face. I can't describe how awful it was. I just remember it being huge, and it weighed a ton.

I was still ridiculously excited, but I did manage to tell him I'd like us to look for a more petite ring, if possible. He said ok.

The whole thing was just strange.

Gorgeous Ring!

Wow! I absolutely love this ring! It's gorgeous!!!

You know what else it is?

E X P E N S I V E.

This ring carries a price tag that says $15,000.00.

Yep, that's more than our entire wedding budget.

Ahh, if only money grew on trees!
