Thumbs up Mrs Stampede turns 40!

Mrs Stampede turns 40 tomorrow! It's a milestone, so I decided an eternity ring was appropriate:

I thought eternity ring was after first child or first anniversary?? Mind you I'm still waiting for mine after 16yrs and 3 kids
Congrats to the missus!

Awww. Happy birthday to Mrs S.

I got my eternity ring when I became pregnant with DD after 8 years of marriage. OH said it was because it would be the last expensive thing we could afford- apart from everything to do with babies/children and now uni student!!

Thanks guys. There's no official date or event associated with eternity rings, but I've wanted to get her one for some time and a birthday is as good an excuse as any.

Her response this evening: 'You have pleased me.'

The big 40.

How does she feel about turning 40 Vash? Is she taking it well, or not?


Lovely gift by the way, just read she liked it!

She's taking it very well, but sad to see the end of her 30s.

We have been married 12 years and my wife still hasn't got an engagement ring yet lol

When we got engaged I was a hard up young uni student with $10 in my bank account

She said it didn't matter to her...and that was one of those genuine doesn't matter, not one of those other doesn't matter things women do when it really does matter...wait have I got that right

Anyhoo 14 years on from the engagement we are still going and still no engagement ring. I did offer a can ring pull and a hula hoop lol arrrggggggg salt n vinegar hula hoops.. yum.

We will get around to it one day and I guess will have to propose again I guess if the answer is no here it will be divorce lol

Happy 40th anyway.

Lol, it took 7th anniversary to get an engagement ring, 15th to get a wedding ring! I suppose 25th would be good time for eternity ring
