The Ring

I thought I would tell you all the story behind my engagement ring

First of all, it is my birthstone and it is shaped like a heart with a white gold band.

Now the fun part. At the time he started planning all of this out, my best friend (at the time) was engaged as well. She told me that her fiancé wanted her to go pick out her ring and she really needed me to come with her for support since she really wasn't into this girly-wedding stuff. So of course, me being the friend that I am, went with. I also took the opportunity to look at all of the pretty jewelry and fantasize about my day...one day...in the distant future. She told me she was having the hardest time with what she might want and asked my opinion. I told her that if it were me, I would pick something I would want to look at every day for the rest of my life. Something different. Something me. Then I pointed to a beautiful white gold ring with a purple amethyst heart. This ring. Which Patrick asked Kari to take me and pick out.

Sneaky little punks!
