my engagement story







I went to open the door, thinking I had a UPS package waiting for me, and I find Riley (tux and all) standing on my doorstep.



I lost it right then, and started crying and laughing. I hid behind the door because I just could not believe it!








I figured I should go out and at least give him a hug!











He gave me roses. . .they were beautiful





And then. . .he proposed!













I said YES!






















































I made him re-stage it outside because my mom didn't know what settings to put on my digital SLR camera, so the picture lighting was wrong!



















A princess cut with a tension setting, and two pink sapphire stones on each side. Sadly, it did not fit, so I have currently been carrying it in my purse in the ring box or wearing it on my pinky finger!

Congratulations! It will be nice to meet you finally...sadly, it probably won't be at your wedding! :( Just because I'm due right around the time you guys have been thinking about getting married. But...one day!

HUGS!
