Christen from An Aqua Juel has a positively BEAUTIFUL aquamarine engagement ring and agreed to share a bit of herself with the Turtle Love Committee blog.
Yay Christen!
What is your favorite place in the whole wide world? Soon it will be my own house…but until then, just about anywhere near water or where I can hike.
What’s your favorite color? Blue!
What would you do if you had a million dollars? Travel to places far far away with my fiance, have Annie Liebowitz take photographs of all of my family, and buy an house that is eco-friendly and has an awesome backyard, go back to school to get my doctorate in dance anthropology. Oh, and pay off student loans and all that boring stuff.
What do you do for work? I just finished grad school and am hoping to get a job teaching elementary school.
What are you afraid of? Spiders - I don’t even like typing the word.
Favorite joke? A: Knock knock B: Who’s There? A: Interrupting Cow B: Interrupt - A: MOO!

What is the last book you read? The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett
Pet peeve? Hearing people gulp or chew.
What is your favorite physical feature? My shoulders.
Who is your partner? The coolest, funniest, most caring and thoughtful guy ever. Oh, and he’s really handsome too 
I can’t wait to see what adventures we get to go on together!
How did you and your partner decide to get married? I think we knew a few weeks into our relationship, but he decided to wait to ask me (two years later) in the most beautiful place in the world - Sevilla, Spain. I think it was worth the wait!
What does your wedding/engagement/commitment ring look like? A cushion-cut pale aquamarine with a halo of micro-pave diamonds. I ADORE it!!
Keep up with Christen’s doings at www.anaquajuel.blogspot.com. Yay!
