We have been talking a while about getting married. He had a ring that belonged to his great grandmother. It had some wear and some damage that he had to fixed, but it is so beautiful. He got it fixed back in March and April, so I've just been waiting for when it would happen.
On June 20, it did! We went to see Toy Story 3 with his grandparents and his mom. Afterward he drove me to my car and we were talking. I started to get out of the car, and he said "wait, close your eyes." I asked him why and he said that he bought me something that day. Then he handed me a box, I opened it, and the ring was inside. He asked if I would marry him and I said yes, of course.
He kept trying to figure when, where, and how to ask me, but he just couldn't wait any longer. I'm glad he didn't. It was perfectly for us. We're not really the plan it out, do something fancy kind of people. It was nice.
Afterward, we went to get a snow cone, and of course we texted all the people that needed to know first. It was a perfect night.
The ring was a little tight, especially with the summer heat, so we took it yesterday to get resized. The jeweler is making it a half a size bigger and I should have it back next Saturday. I can't wait to get it back and be able to wear it comfortably.
Right now we are looking at September 24, 2011 as our wedding date. It seems so far away, but we need the time to figure out job situations and all of that stuff. Plus, it will probably take me that long to make all of the decisions.
As for now, we are enjoying being engaged and discussing the wedding details. I'm sure I will be posting details here, so stay tuned for all of the wedding happenings.
