IT HAPPENED! There is currently a ring on my finger! YAY! Well this is how it went down...After school and work I called up Cass wanting to go on a bike ride, and he agreed and started packing a lunch (to my knowledge.) He told me to go home and get my biking clothes on, so I did and to my surprise! A RED rose which represented "The Past" on my pillow, with a few pictures of the pond where we first hung out! The card lead me to the pond and I found the PINK rose which represents "The present." All had very cute saying on them. This lead me to the WHITE rose which represented "The future" at the St. George Temple, today was a BEAUTIFUL day, warm and sunny. As I read the last card, I saw my handsome boyfriend Cass in the corner walking towards me where he popped the question! "That White rose represents the future and I want to be in yours, and want you to be in mine, Will you Marry Me?!?" and got down on one knee and I said YES! Now my boyfriend turned into a Fiance. YAY! I'm so happy and excited....you have NO IDEA!!!
My Clues :)
This picture makes me SMILE!
CHEESE!
HAHA! popping the foot...
Okay...So I've got to tell the story about my ring...I called my sweet Grandmother Eileen and told her the news of our Wedding Date (and no..I wasn't engaged yet) and she was excited to hear and asked if we had purchased a ring yet, and no we hadn't. So I went over to her house and she showed me this BEAUTIFUL diamond. I immediately fell in love with it. She told me the story behind the ring, it was purchased in May 1980. She has kept the diamond with her for those "just in case" moments. So her sweet spirit made my day. This ring will always be something I cherish. Cass and I finally found a band that I loved (with the help of Nicole.) The diamond fit perfectly in the ring and didn't have to get it sized. It was fate!
