Engagement




Last night Daniel and I went to the West Desert which is just behind Eagle Mountain near Tooele, to watch a meteor shower. We were hoping that the clouds would not block our view of the shower. We saw multiple meteors but then the clouds soon came covered our small window. Daniel had cushioned the bed of his truck so that we could sit and be comfortable, once the clouds covered, he said I have something to read to you. He pulled out a journal that he writes in now. He read some of the entries from when we first met and then said he had a gift for me. I was getting pretty nervous and of course was hoping he would pull out a ring box. He pulled out an enagement journal for us to write our story in and the process that we go through. I thought this was a sweet thing. He then said I have something else for you and before I could think, he had the ring box out and opened. It was the most beautiful ring I had ever seen and don't think I could have designed anything better or fit my personality more.
It is a radiant cut diamond in a halo setting. The stones around the center diamond are both emerald and round cut. The band is made of palladium and 2mm thick. All I wanted to do was stare at it and show it off. We did enjoy more of the meteors, but had to call it a night when the wind and cold were making my eyes water. It was the perfect night.
