Woohoo!

Also, woohoo for not spending an obscene amount on something so tiny, and getting two of the things for that price at that.

Woohoo! Blog party? Blog party.

Woah, congratulations! That is awesome, BCii!

Congratulations, BC! Are matching engagement rings a Finnish tradition? Just wondering.

What do your rings look like? You've got to have pictures.

Congratulations! Oh, I'm so happy for you. Have you set a date yet?

A wedding gown with small embroidered white hedgehogs would be all kinds of marvelous.

Whoo! Way to be. Congrats, and blessings on the union.

Wow, congratulations, BC! That's really awesome! I hope the two many long years of happiness!

Out of curiosity, how does a Finnish-style engagement party work? I've always loved Finnish aspects.

Many congratulations! ^^

WHEE! This is great news! Congrats to you and your fiancee!

Woohoo! Blog party? Blog party.

The local jeweller in my hometown said the rings would have cost almost twice as much from his store. Waaaay too much.

My first blog party!

We've got a tentative date, yes.

I'll have to settle for hedgehog socks with my tux. We've got a tight schedule.

Wow, congratulations, BC! That's really awesome! I hope the two many long years of happiness!

Well, the way we did it, we just invited a few relatives and friends for a li'l celebration Friday night. We made karjalanpiirakoita (rice pies), pullaa (coffee bread), cookies, and of course, a fancy cake. The party itself was kind of like a bridal shower in that the guests bore gifts for us. The evening included singing and poetry as well.

Mawaige, is what bwings us togevuh...

 

And all that good stuff.

"The Princess Bride," heh heh. That was a classic.

Thanx to everyone for your best wishes! Every time someone congratulates us on our engagement, it really reminds me how truly fortunate I am. :blush:
