I am engaged to the man of my dreams!

It wasn''t over-the-top, but it was perfect for us! We ate dinner tonight at a romantic Spanish restaurant. I kind of figured that he was up to something because I knew that he had the ring. I helped him pick it out! Anyways, we just finished having dessert when he walked around to my side of the table, got down on his knee, and proposed! Of course I said "YES!" Then all of the tables around us and the waiters started clapping! It was great how much everybody cared and I couldn''t be happier!

Oh it is magnificent! I bet you are thrilled! How special everyone was so involved. I like how he proposed. I wonder if that was all he was thinking about during dinner. Do you recall? What he preoccupied? Or just normal? Sweet!!!!!!!!

psstt....what did you eat? Mexican is my favorite!!

Thanks everybody for all of your wonderful comments about my ring!

Sorry I couldn''t post more pictures!


door knob solitare - I remember him not being very talkative before the proposal, but I didn''t really know exactly why! Also, we had Spanish food...I had grouper with roasted garlic and tomatos and he had filet mignon. YUM!

ccuheartnurse - I agree about the tapered (pinched shank)...I think it draws a lot of attention to the diamond! It is also part of the modified tiffany setting because whenever I get a wedding band it will sit flush against my e-ring and not create any gaps.
