Ok, you want the story, here it is!!!! Not what most people may class as how they want to get engaged but if you know us, it was perfect!!!!!!
We had been out at a shoot this morning and popped home to drop the stuff off before heading to town for some shopping. We got the bits we wanted to re-do the bathroom and then headed to good old Greggs for some quick lunch.
Headed back to the car and drove to "our" spot which is a lovely wooded area and we often sit in the car park there with some lunch talking and listening the footie on a weekend. Anyway, there we were, me looking like a tramp in my old faithful jeans, hoodie and ugg boots, covered in pasty crumbs and not a care in the world. We finished eating and my boy asked me if I had any Rennie (he suffers terrbily with indegestion!) and I said no so he went into his pocket and I was looking out the window.
Turned around and he was holding the most beautiful ring and just said, "Pops, will you make me the happiest man in the world and marry me" and I just stared and the next thing I knew I was in tears and all I could muster was "are you kidding, is it real
I think because it was so unexpected I just couldn't see how it could be happeneing and I even thought he had found a toy ring or something!!!
After a few minutes he said "Pops, please say something" to which I squealed yes and he popped the ring on my finger and we had the biggest hug ever.....
We sat there just smiling for ages then I called my folks and almost deafened my poor Mumsy and then went to the inlaws and lots of tears ensued there too.
It is just the nicest feeling, I am amazingly happy and it was just perfect.
We aren't the sort to get togged up and go to posh restaurants so if he had done that it just wouldnt have been him or us. His style was just this and it was perfect.
Like he said, he wanted to get the surprise element and boy, did he do that!!
My ring he had made for me and it was supposed to be here on my birthday but the diamond came from SA and it didn't show up in time for the jewellers to make it. It is platinum and is a 1/2 carrat princess cut solitare and I love it soooooooooooooo much. I cant stop looking at it.
So yeah, October 3rd is going down as one of the best days of my life.
Our folks asked if we had any thoughts about when the wedding would be yet and I said not really but my boyo said if I wanted to he would like to this time next year which just made me even happier
I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy
