Surprise!

I took this picture Wednesday night just to document the delicious mushroom risotto Holland made me and the delicious-smelling stargazer lilies he had gotten for me. As one of my friends said, this is clearly a testament to what a sweet boyfriend Holland is that I didn't think there was anything unusual about him getting me flowers and making me dinner.



Of course, maybe I should have been suspicious when he made me margaritas (my favorite drink) to go with the mushroom risotto (my favorite home dinner). Since those aren't usually paired together.

I had been working really late and was ready to go to bed. I was just telling him this when he asked if he could ask me a question...



And we're engaged! The ring is his great-grandmother's and is 95 years old! The cut is beautiful and it is so glittery. It's probably the most special thing I've ever been given. And I get to marry the sweetest boy in the world!

Guess I have to start getting manicures now!
