Engagement Surprise



Wednesday, June 30 was an exciting and surprising evening. My boyfriend and I came home from the gym, and we cooked dinner together. As we finished eating he began to tell me what a wonderful part of his life I am, and the next thing I knew he was down on his knee next to me. Of course, I said "yes," and he slipped a diamond ring on my finger. It took me a few minutes to stop jumping up and down, and he played some guitar for me before we made phone calls to announce the news. I was eager to show off my new piece of jewelry, and we wanted to share the news with some friends in town. I didn't have the time or the focus to make engagement cupcakes, but I was able to come up with a plan. I made cupcakes for the 4th of July, and I was saving them back. So, I grabbed a few of them and headed to the store. I didn't have time to ice them, but I did manage to find some Ring Pop candy to put on top. When we got to our friend's house it was almost 11:00pm. But, they weren't all that surprised to see me outside the door with a container of cupcakes. I opened the container and looked at a confused face. While I hid my ring finger under the container, I asked my friend what type of candy she saw on top. She screamed, grabbed my hand, and congratulated us both. These might not be my most detailed or creative cupcakes, but they have to be the most special, by far.
