: baum shows gwen the real rock!



Back at the cabin that day. Gwen and I were both still in shock. I don't think what had just happened had really set in. Everyone saw our happiness and love in one another. It was great. Gwen especially loved her ring. The one that was on her finger. The fake ring. I almost didn't have the heart to tell her it wasn' t the real one. But I had to. Back at the cabin in front of the fireplace. I bent down on one knee and told her the story.

I told her I was nervous and afraid I might lose a ring in the snow. I told her I had worked so hard to make this a special day for both of us and I didn't want anything to go wrong. So I had a duplicate ring made just in case. What she didn't know was that real ring was almost twice as big as the fake ring. So when I opened the real ring box and she saw her real diamond she almost fainted. It was bigger, brighter, and was the true representation of my love for her.

I took the white sapphire off her finger and slipped the diamond on. The funny part was the fake ring was sized wrong. So I had to propose on Gwen's pinky finger on the mountain. It was the only thing that didn't go the way I planned. But it worked out super because her real ring was the first thing that I slipped on to her ring finger. So it was great that when I pulled out her real ring it was sized and fit her cute fingers perfectly.

We are both very happy. Thank you for letting us share this with you. Our friends mean the world to us. I hope everyone finds happiness in the love we have found in one another. Gwen and I are planning a Fall wedding for 2002. Possibly October. You know I will have tons of stuff up on the website to keep everyone up to date.

Bryan and Gwen
