It happened!!! As of last week this bee is done waiting!!!
I’m so excited to finally post it here haha
It happened last Wednesday when I came home from work. As soon as I got in the house he said he made me something and asked if I wanted it then or after we finished doing some things outside. I had no idea what he made but I wanted to let the anticipation build (I didn’t know what was about to happen, but I like to let myself get excited and surprised 🙂
About 10 mins later we finished and he actually had to remind me that he made something because I completely forgot lol I sat down on the couch and he handed me a DIY magazine that read “Our Year.” As I flipped through the pages I saw pictures from 2015 with funny hand-written captions of things we did and moments we shared together. The last page had a typed out paragraph (he wanted to make sure I could read it haha) of all the sweet things he likes about me and our relationship. I started crying because he’s not usually the romantic type, and I love it when he actually tells me these things. I also couldn’t believe it was finally happening. I turned the page and there was a little flap that said “Open after reading.” I opened it and inside was, “Will you marry me?” and when I looked up from the booklet he was on one knee with the ring.
I actually stared at him for a few seconds because I was waiting for him to ask in person haha He did eventually =] I said yes!
He got my dream ring, a Verragio, with a 1ct equivalent moissanite and white gold. It’s a perfect fit, in every sense.
Thank you all for the wonderful support through all these years. I’m looking forward to reading all you have to offer on planning 🙂
