awesome dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations! Good job! I'd say yes to this baby too. Have fun on your big day!
Beautiful!!! Congratulations to you both!!!!
Thanks! She actually picked it. Yes, she saw it before I purchased it but hey, I wanted her to get exactly what she wanted! It's her life too!! Macy's was the first place we went. One of those mailers got to the house and she circled a few and we went and looked. Funny it turns out the one she wanted was the more $$$ one.... I tell you, worth every penny ! I will post my ring when I get it back....... not from Macy's, but custom.... long story short they messed up the order and sent me NOT what I wanted so I may or may not get the ring before 10/21 because they have to remake another one!! (palladium and Gibeon meteorite. i will post when i get it. It is awesome!)
