    Last night we were eating pizza at the kitchen counter and we were talking about possible options for a civil ceremony that could still included our immediate families.  FI(!) got up and went into his "man cave" to retreive something and I knew instantly what was about to happen.  This:

    Surprise proposal story! :  wedding proposal Nesting Dolls

     

    Of course, he made me open 5 nesting dolls to find my ring, then the last little one held a piece of paper that said "Would you like to marry me?"  He just had to be different!

    The ring is a grey moonstone and I love the simplicity and uniqueness of it.  Plus, it goes great with my latest manicure, Sally Hansen Nail Effects in Plaid!
