I would very much like to thank everybody who helped me in preparing to ask for Christine's hand in marriage:
To GOD: Thank you for bringing us both together and for preparing us for the last 5 years (3 dating, 2 as friends). For being patient and revealing the right time to propose!
This includes both sets of parents: Thank you for keeping my secret for 3.5 months and not exploding at wanting to tell people!
To Fr. Mike Renninger: Thanks for the push out the door and the "What are you waiting for?!" discussion. That was all I needed!
To my friends who I DID tell as I was going through the process of making the ring, thanks for not blowing my cover with Christine!
To Scott, thank you SO much for helping me design Christine's ring! It looks awesome man, and she LOVES it. I know we still have some more processing to go before we can have the real thing in hand, but she's crazy about the model I proposed with:) Thanks for the late nights at the office designing and printing, and being a great friend.
***If anybody else has an interest in Scott's talent, check out his website!

I'll be uploading more pictures as the real ring comes out. As stated a few posts ago, I decided I couldn't wait another month and more for the real ring, so I proposed with the painted 3D printed version. Christine loves it, and frankly, didn't even care it was real :) I guess that's how you know she's a keeper, right?
