Ring
Bam Baby!
Oh, yeah, Baby!

First things first... I did not want a diamond ring... I wanted aquamarine...
Why? Because I am obsessed with water. Lakes, beaches, ponds, rain... You name it.
And, of course, aquamarine symbolizes water. Put two and two together here... Ta Da!

Also, aquamarine is lored to ensure blissful marriage and security. Sailors used to put it under their pillows at night to ensure safe journeys. It is also lored to have formed in mermaids' sea chests.

Yeah, I know. It's all a load of crock.
But I couldn't help it.

I know a diamond ring would not mean as much to me...

And, I nearly choked when the jeweler(?) sized my finger. I know I'm a small girl, but the ring had to be sized to a four! Mother of Noah!

But anyways...

I am in love with this ring. Randy has been so amazing to me, and he loves it too.

I am so happy. =]

I am being a little selfish here, only because my birthstone is an aquamarine!  I have to just tell you that I really love your ring, & it is so unique & beautiful......congratulations!

I love it as well!! I opted for the same thing.  Aquamarine is my birthstone too but I wanted something different.  I thought it would be great if I can pass this ring on to my daughter later in life and not only would it be my engagement ring but my birthstone too.  My finance loved it too and he even said he loved it even more being that the color blue reminds him of our 2 year old daughter's blue eyes.  

Congrats!!
