I love my ring!

I realize this may be a little late, but I love my ring! It's perfect! And while it's sparkly and beautiful, the best part about it is how every time I look at it I remember everything about that night. My friends and family were there (some even drove in from out of town for what I thought was just a birthday party), we had gingerbread house stations, and even Voltron was dressed up! I look at my ring and I remember Jessica talking me into wearing a dress and heels, how everyone tried to get me to get my nails done that week but I didn't even repaint my nails, the engagement cake that appeared out of nowhere, the huge smile on my face that I couldn't get rid of for weeks, and I especially remember Tim and I going outside and everything he said and how oblivious I was to what was happening until he was down on one knee. I love that he put so much thought into making the evening as perfect as it was from beginning to end. I look at my ring and I smile every time. with every little step, we get closer to our wedding day; with all the stress that can come with planning a wedding (and dealing with school along the way), having something that can immediately take me back to that moment really helps to keep everything in perspective.


I'm so excited to get married and add a wedding band to which I can look as a constant reminder of that special day.
