… I’M SOOOOOOO EXCITED FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀
I couldn’t help but squeal when I read this post! And your ring is so beautiful! I wish you both not all the happiness in the world as I had originally intended. For happiness is lovely, but it can get rather boring and it is true that it is the trials of this life that really bring people closest together. So instead, I wish you both a life full of adventure and excitement … as well as all the happiness in the world. Love you both! 😉
Congratulations to you both!!!!!
P.S. You now get to gleefully change you little summary of yourself in the top left corner now… Not Mr. Owl’s girlfriend anymore….! Congrats, again! 🙂
I am! I can’t wait to really get started on the planning portion– well, to be honest I just want to do the fun things like register and try on wedding dresses. Hehe.
I smiled like a fool when I read the first sentence of the post 🙂 Your ring is so unique and suits you perfectly. Mr. Owl obviously knows you very well. I’m so happy for both of you!! Life is just so great isn’t it??
Marie
P.s. Would it be awkward if Picco and I just showed up at your wedding? *cough* Because that may happen. We’d love any excuse for a roadtrip 😛
-Dances around- I’m so happy for you! I shrieked when I read that first sentence, and again when I saw the ring. It’s gorgeous! Congratulations to you both!
OH MY GOODNESS I’M SO EXCITED I CAN’T EVEN WHAT IS AIR?
Congratulations Kristina, I’m so very happy for you and wish you all the best! Also, what a beautiful ring, it suits you perfectly. Mr Owl obviously has very good taste 🙂 🙂
I wish you both every happiness and I am very certain you will have a long, very happy and love-filled marriage. Sending lots of love anf joy your way xx.
Ooh, congratulations! I gasped really loudly and exclaimed, “oh, my goodness, she’s engaged!” when I read this. (My sister was all “Who??” Um . . . not anyone we know in person, actually.) I am so happy for you, Kristina!! May you only know joy and goodness and may you succeed in building a household as beautiful as the one you were raised in.
goodness gracious i screamed so loud my dad was like, “WHAT HAPPENED” and i was just like, flailing in my chair so i couldn’t answer him! CONGRATULATIONS KRISTINA! you guys are too cute for words 🙂 will you be telling us how he proposed? ^^
Wow, I got butterflies in my stomach reading this! LOL
Congratulations!!! Wishing you many happy years together. My hubby and I have been married for 16 years (we’ve been together for 21 years – since we were 16) and every day/week/month/year, I love him more and more. It’s wonderful to be married to my best friend…and I hope all of that to you both!
Oh my goodness congratulations! SUCH good news. I got engaged a handful of months ago and have been curious about the anniversary date thing. It’s hard to give up the original……
SO amazing for you!
Trish
I know, it is! But I figure in a few months, we’ll have a whole new (and the best) anniversary entirely, so y’know. I guess we could just keep celebrating all three. 😀 Haha!
Thank you!
CONGRATULATIONS. THAT’S SO AWESOME. YOU’RE SO GONNA WEAR THAT GREEN MAXI FOR YOUR WEDDING. (Kidding.) Enough capital letters. But seriously, congratulations. After reading below, here, I, too, am impressed with Mr. Owl’s taste. (:
Ahahahahahaha!!! You made me laugh out loud. Seriously. 😀 Yes, totally gonna wear the green maxi dress. 😀 *snort* Thank you.
The lady at the jewelry place we went to get the ring sized was impressed, too. She was like “Your ring is the prettiest one I’ve seen all day. It’s even prettier than the stuff we carry!” So, y’know. 😉
Aw, congratulations! I was wondering why I was seeing owl cake toppers on your Pinterest page. 🙂 In the back of my head I thought, “Oh, she probably got proposed to.” I’m glad to see I was right. Your story and pictoral depiction are so sweet and do so well to capture the moment.
That ring is beautiful! Mine engagement was (well, I guess is, since I’m still married) a star sapphire and diamonds and exactly what I wanted, without him even having to ask! Hooray for uniquely beautiful rings!
Welllllll, if it isn’t Future Mrs. Owl. Can we just talk about how insanely happy I am for you? Not only did you get engaged on my birthday, but YOU’RE GETTING MARRIED. Wow. Just…wow. Marie texted me right when you posted and was like AHHHHH! DID YOU READ MARA’S POST!?!! (I’ve got a lot of caps lock going on in this comment)
And Marie’s right. I think she and I are just going to show up. Possibly. I asked my mom if I could go and she’s like “You’re going to fly to Washington. With Marie. To go to the wedding of a blogger that you haven’t actually met.” I’m still not sure what the problem is.
I am so so so so so so sorry my congratulations have taken so long, but I am over the moon excited for you!! That ring is stunningly gorgeous, as are the two of you together. 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 The early shift after I read this post, I went around telling everyone, “Mara-I-mean Kristina’s engaged!!!” “Who?” “My blog friend Kristina! ENGAGGEEEEEED!” “Well, okay. Gratz to her.” “Um, YES CONGRATS!!! You heard me right? Engaged! Like… to be married!!”

Ahhh, congrats! I showed your ring picture to my little sister and she was all “it’s an Elvish ring!”…obviously we just finished a LOTR binge. 🙂
