Last night I came home from work, pulled into the garage and hanging from the ceiling was a huge diamond ring (Ryan installs exterior signs for a living – he probably snagged this from a Helzberg, Bailey Banks in Biddle, or something…). I thought for sure he was pranking me. Nope. I walk in the house and there are dozens of flowers and candles all over the place. He had music playing and a glass of wine ready for me. I was speechless. I could tell he was super nervous and excited! On the kitchen table was a pile of about 50 ring boxes. Each box had a small piece of paper that said something he loved about me and our relationship, and each box made me cry (tears of happiness of course!):

Then, I opened up a box with a real sparkly diamond ring! He took it out of my hands, got down on one knee, I accidentally gave him my right hand, we both laughed. Then, the popped the question! Obviously I said yes.
We went to celebrate at the Farinas Winery in Grapevine! Such a wonderfully romantic evening! Now the planning begins!
