Went ring shopping for the 1st time today!!!

[dragonfly]

I actually have two engagement rings. Everton gave me a small pretty diamond ring when Liam was born. Years later when we finally set our date, he gave me a beautiful (read bigger,hehe) ring, he did a great job picked exactly what I liked.

Your ring is beautiful, it's nice you got to pick out your ring, after all it's you who is going to wear it everyday, for the rest of your life.

Yeah, I'm glad he shared with me how he was feeling. I had already started backing off awhile back (I even stopped checking these boards for a few weeks, lol). He knows now that I'm cool and I really want him to feel "ready". Now the only hard thing is trying not to spill the beans to my family! I swear, it has *almost* slipped out so many times... *doh!* ;P

I'm just going to be a jerk to you in every one of your threads today, ok?! So, any idea as to when it might happen? (it = proposal!)

Haha, you're so cute Courtney.

I dunno when it will happen but I'm still *secretly* kinda hoping and wondering about when we're in Mexico this June... We'll see though - it conflicts with my birthday so I dunno. The way we've been talking it looks like by the end of the year, most likely sometime this Summer I think... He says he knows when and where but he's really good at throwing me off with these kinds of things when he wants to.

It'll be fun to get into the planning stage but right now I'm just trying to relax and set my mind on other things ya know? Besides I'll have like 2 years to go planning crazy since we're planning on Summer of '09! I hope some of you gals are still around then...!

How is your "quest" (for lack of a better word, sorry lol) going? I haven't really read anything about it since that initial advice... I hope you are doing better!
