Put a ring on it...

     When I was planning my wedding, my grandma told me this hilarious story of when she was engaged.  After my grandpa proposed she went home to show her father the ring.  She said he grabbed her hand and took her outside to look at it.  When she asked why they needed to go outside to look at the ring he replied, "I needed to come out into the sunshine so I could see that tiny thing."  I couldn't even imagine what her reaction was like.  He told her to give it back and tell my grandpa she needed a bigger ring.  Can you believe it?  My grandma actually told my grandpa what her father said and he bought her a bigger ring.  Way to put a ring on it Grandpa.
