She's had a ring for a couple years, we're waitin for her to finish school and then we're gonna buy a house and get married.

She also got me this:



It's a camera mount, so now I can get in car footage!!!! It's pretty cool, it just wrapped around the bar and locked itself in place and is easily removable!

No, it's not a cross bar plate, it's a big shot plate, just a couple stainless spray bars goin from front to back, this one:
