I’m Engaged!

It’s not likely that this is news to any of you, but just in case…
This was originally going to be part of the Iceland entries, but that’s going to take me forever to finish. So, I had been thinking about asking Christina to marry me for a while. With our trip planned, it made sense that I did so while we were in Iceland. By the time I was sure, I didn’t have the funds to buy a ring, but what I did have was access to a MakerBot. With some help, and some time at Hive76, I was able to get a ring printed for her just in time.
I was waiting for this awesome romantic moment with the Northern Lights, stars, Moon and that sort of thing. It didn’t happen though. It was pretty cloudy most of the time we were there. On our last day, I was running out of time. While waiting for our bus to the airport, I handed her the little wooden box (I totally should have printed a box, didn’t think about that damnit) my friend got for me top-secret style. I told her I made it, then she says “You didn’t’ make this…” to which I replied “Not the box.. what’s inside”. She sure has a beautiful smile. Before she could get it on, I let her know that she couldn’t wear it unless she would marry me. She put it on.
Love you t0ast!
