Sorry I took a couple days to finally post pics. Funny how when you get engaged, everyone wants to hang out and see the ring and hear how he did it - kinda like you ladies! 
So here's the much-awaited story: I got home from work Thursday, and when I came in there was a poster with "WILL" on it, and a bunch of white roses. When I came down the hall, there was another with "WILL YOU" and some pink roses by it. Then in my living room was one more with "WILL YOU MARRY" and red roses. And beside that was my now-fiance (!!!!!!) down on one knee holding some yellow lilies and looking super nervous. I stood there and he looked like maybe he was going to pass out, and I tried to just be quiet and give him a chance to actually ask me, since I didn't see a fourth poster anywhere with "me" added to the end of it. After a few seconds, I said "come here!" motioning for him to stand up so I could hug him. He said "hang on a second!" - oops. So he breathed out a couple long breaths trying to collect himself, and he said some sweet things about how he can't imagine his life without me, and asked me to marry him.
He said since this is where we'll be starting our life together when we're married, he thought it would be the best place to ask me. Awwww.
The diamond is a cushion, .80ct, I color, VS2. The setting is size 7 1/4, 18kt white gold with .20ct tcw on it. I absolutely adore it!
I love taking photos but I had a hard time getting good ones of my ring. When I get better ones I'll show you ladies more.
Oh, and he is so sweet about it all. He's been mushy ever since, and he looks at how sparkly the ring is just as much as I do! He's decided he likes the term "pre-wife" better than fiancee and says he's going to call me that. And I don't know that he's stopped grinning since he asked me.
