The Ring

Michael did an absolutely wonderful job picking out the ring. It's perfect! and it fits great too. Here are some pictures I took to show it off.





The proposal was unexpected and very well done. First of all, perhaps the most important part, he called my father and asked for his permission. This impressed both me and my dad. I think he earned major respect points for that one :) He knew how much it meant to me to be traditional about it, and he put his nervousness aside and did it, without me even finding out. We were out GeoCaching on New Year's Eve. The cache we were looking for was in the middle of a large wooded area right outside of a local park. When we found the cache, I was excited, as I always am, and I turned to him to ask if we should drop the Geocoin we'd found from the previous cache location. When I turned around, he was on his knee, with the ring in his hand. That's when he asked me to marry him. Of course, I freaked out and cried..and eventually said yes. Or at least something to that effect. The setting was beautiful, in the middle of the woods with nobody but my love around. Absolutely perfect...just like the ring.
