I just love this! I wrote weekly "love letters" to my brave guy while he was in Iraq last year. The happiest day was when I woke up to an email with his bags on the Tarmac...he was coming home! He could not tell me when, but a picture is worth a thousand words!

I think your plan is awesome. My guy always teases me that I should ask him, but I refuse! You rock!!

letter #3 yesterday... he's really excited about them, and I think it's caught on that he will be getting more :) so cute I'd put the first two on the fridge. Yesterday he got excited to put it on the fridge himself!

hi!!! I just got back from vacationing with my little sister; we went to 29 Palms, CA to visit my brother who is a Marine and his son for his first birthday... BOY IT WAS HOT THERE!!! anyways... I left a letter for BF, they are getting a little personal inside so I'll just share the picture, not the words, and basically it said "I'll love you more than when I left"...

anyways when I got home this morning at 1am, it was on the fridge with the rest of them :) they make me smile...

lol you don't have to share your specific words with us! I was wondering if you'd been writing the whole letter out, sans your full names, then filling out the rest of your names after you've taken photos for us! :lol:

JW: DID YOU MAKE THESE CARDS?!

and yes, SoCal has been a furnace! These last few days, and the next upcoming days especially! It's been ~98-102 around here! And ~108-110 where SO lives! I can say that air conditioning is my #1 most important luxury in life!

yes, I've made these cards, they are just something simple thought. I have my own business making cards and wedding invites/RSVP's/Thank yous and what not... these cards have all been done using left over scraps... hahah! But I just can't throw out paper (I might have a problem)

I just have been using paint to scratch through our names, I've been finishing the cards and then taking a pic of them in my photo box.

That's so creative! Oh how fun! I'm actually thinking of buying a machine to do my own STD's and invites and am thinking of offering it as a service on Etsy to make back the $.

Your cards are so adorable. I am handing over my grandmothers e-ring (to use as my own) to my bf on Monday. You are inspiring me to make him a card to go along with it!

Cant wait to see more!

Hi guys! I've been over beyond busy lately... moving in with the BF our local County Fair is in town, work... and more work... Let's just say he LOVES his letters!!! And can hardly wait to get them on the fridge... and I think he knows that I might propose...

Friday he gave me a 'promise' ring - that he took back about three days later to get sized (it's his class ring, how cute huh!), he plans on proposing with that ring and then we will go and design/pick out our e-ring together (i just e-mailed a company about a custom design - just in case it's soon).

Only 5 more days until our anniversary... so exciting... I purchased a silver fortune cookie to put a Marry Me slip of paper in it (we went to Chinese for our first date) and will also give him the last letter.

I have a letter tonight (our first kiss, yes I kissed him before we were an actual couple), Friday (his birthday) and Monday (anniversary)

Dust to me, hoping he doesn't freak out, but we have been talking non-stop about engagement for weeks now.

I'm so excited for you, I Love Spinel! This is coming together perfectly and it sounds like he's just as excited as you are, without him actually knowing what's going on!! Yippee --- 3 events left - I can't wait to see the fridge picture with all the letters on there! Please post one!!

I'm pretty sure at least half of this threads pageviews are from ME, obsessively checking for progress!

I'm very excited to hear more! :appl:

You must be bursting with excitement right now.
