[So rather than doing the polite thing and emailing or calling all of our friends individually we thought we'd just POST IT TO HoP and let the word spread from there!]

Yes, it's true... Another Happy HoP Couple! biggrin

I secretly flew out to visit Molly this weekend and surprised her not only with watching her be the lovely May Queen but with a diamond engagement ring that my great-uncle hand crafted for her.

We're both jumping up and down so much that graemlins just don't do it justice.

Sometimes Life Is Perfect.

Love to you all from the happiest couple.

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.

NYC is right - graemlins just aren't enough to express this.

I'm still speechless so any story telling to be done is in NYC's hands.

OK, fine, I'LL tell the story since I'm the only one who actually knows all of the top secret details.

Let's see... how does it start?

I guess it starts two months ago with me asking my 84 year old Great Uncle Harry to make me a ring. Uncle Harry has been sculpting rings since he was 16, it's the only job he's ever had. So I had a really nice time picking out what I thought Molly would like (based also on a quick trip to Tiffany's last time she was in town.)

Then two weeks ago I called her Dad to ask for permission and his blessing and had a lovely conversation.

Then last week I told Molly that I'd be busy Friday night but she said she'd be home Saturday for a chat.

On Friday I ran out of work and jumped on a plane to Edinburgh arriving first thing Saturday morning. Our good friend Andy (the only person in the UK who knew anything) then met me at the airport and we took the bus to Molly's stopping only to pick up a bouquet of lillys.

Then, from outside her door, Andy called Molly and asked her to come down and bounce suprise! There I was.

Now as far as she knew I had flown into town to see her be the May Queen in the Beltane festival (which was certainly true as well.)

Beltane was BEAUTIFUL and my girlie was BEAUTIFUL (says everyone) and it was so nice to finally get to see her be the Queen.

I knew that there would be chaos upto and after Beltane so I asked if we could have some "us" time after Beltane but before I left. I guess around 2AM we slipped away and walked a bit up Arthur's Seat (extinct volcano turned large scenic hill in Edinburgh.) We sat and smooched and snuggled for a bit in the Scottish drizzle. Then, not wanting to traumatize the poor girl as much as I had on Saturday, I tried to lead into my proposal a bit gently than just pulling out a ring. I told her the story about Uncle Harry's ring and chatting with her father. And then I showed her the ring and got on my knee and asked her to marry me. ubbangel

She said yes.

And then we sat for a bit, and then took a taxi back into town and celebrated with some Beltane folks that were still about. And then we went and snuggled at the train station til the sun came up. And then I jumped on a bus to the airport to a plane to New York.

And then I called my Mom and my Dad and Molly's Mom and Dad called me and I called my cousin and I called Molly and I called my sister and then my cousing called me because she had also spoken to my mom and then...

ubblove

And that's the story.

biggrin

Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.
