Desmo

Well I guess I should fill you all in with some details :)

I didn't have much time to prepare. I asked her dad for his blessing that morning and then started sneaking crackers around, hehe.

At the Christmas party at the start of the month one of the crackers had a ring on a spring puzzle in it. The idea popped in to my head and I kept it. Put her engagement ring on the spring puzzle and popped it in to the cracker :D

When we opened the crackers we did both of ours at the same time and she ended up with both crackers :eek: I had to quickly snatch my one back :D

She pulled the puzzle out and, having seen it before, started to do it and then noticed what ring was attached, lol.

I dropped from my chair down on to one knee. I couldn't get my words out and think I just ended up mouthing them :D
