I love the wife's dad like my own. I hit the Inlaw-Jackpot, seriously. Just some of the best people I've ever met anywhere. I knew she'd want me to ask, and I also knew it'd just make his day, so I was more than thrilled to ask him first.
I talk to them as much as she does. I look forward to their visits like christmas. Just excellent people.
The rings were antiques, a few tiny diamonds, some small saphires. I found the engagement ring on ebay - a very beautiful, subtle, old design. She absolutely loves it. She wanted to pick out the wedding ring, and she got another antique.
Yeah, this is why I am going to do my damnedest to keep my ex-inlaws. I love them, they love me, and they are probably as close to me now as my own family. Hell, I hope to know them for the rest of their long Mainer lives.
