My romantic story...

Yesterday as the previous posts states, we celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary! I am sure everyone is sick of hearing about this but I just had to write it down, so that when I am an old grannie I can remember this great day.
Mitch and I exchanged our cards and gifts over his favorite breakfast that I made, breakffast burritos. He liked the new watch and cologne I got him. I loved the necklace and gift cards he gave me:) When he gave me the necklace he said "I tried to find you something really awesome but there wasnt anything that great out there. Sorry."
He took the kids to school as usual. After I heard the garage door close and him coming up the stairs, I glanced up to see him coming up the stairs all dressed up in a suit and tie, holding a bottle of sparkling cider, and something behind his back. He took me by the hand, got on one knee and said "We tend to do things backwards. I never officially proposed to you, so I am asking you now Will you marry me again?" I started crying and he gave me a tiny black box. In the black box was the prettiest ring I could have ever asked for! Its stunning really. A picture of it doesnt even do it justice. But here is a pic of my new bling! I was so shocked to get such a beautiful gift. Sure maybe I was hoping for it but to actually have him surprise me and throw me off the way he did was the best ever! Thank you honey. I love my new ring and yes I will marry you again:)

The bottom band isnt connected to the other band. And I love that you can see the point of the diamond from the side the way its set in the setting. And you gotta love that platinum:))

I am very Proud of my son-in-law. I knew if we all had just a few more patients with him, he would grow a pair, and win you over, and shock us all that he can do it, and do it right. !!!!!
(I'm trying to be funny, but it didn't work. . . "Mitch, help me!"
