Ring
My beautiful ring... and how he asked me to wear it...
The day Duncan proposed to me, we were at a cottage with some friends and my brother. I guess he had tried to propose to me earlier in the day, but I ruined it... unknowingly of course! haha. We were heading out to the pool and when I got in the car, Duncan told me he forgot his baithing suite inside and asked if I would go get it for him. told him he should get it because I'd already reminded him a billion times not to forget it. (I even had an extra packed in the car for him!). He insisted that I get it for him and I continued to resist, telling him he could wear the one in the car. His reason for not wearing the one we had with us in the car, or so he said, was that he was "too fat for it" (even though he is not overweaight by any means... haha). By this point, my brother and friend were also asking me to hurry up and go get it because they wanted to get to the pool. I resisted out of principle, that "just because I'm his girlfriend I don't have to do everything for him".
SO, Duncan went in himself, came back out and got in the car. We drove up to the main lodge and as I got out of the car, Duncan got down on one knee outside my door and showed me why he'd wanted me to go back inside so badly. Apparently it had been sitting on the dresser with a note beside it, asking me to marry him. I was so overwhelmed and surprised, I must have cried for 10 minutes before I even said yes! haha, and as an extra, rather unintended bit to the proposal, a whole bunch of bunnies came right up to us and were trying to hop into the car :)
I felt awful for not going in and ruining his proposal TWICE in one day, but it didn't matter how he asked, because it was special anyway!
P.S. Did I mention he asked my dad for permission first!?
What a wonderful husband he is going to be...
