Julianne Hough has shared a new photo on her official website, giving fans their first look at an especially large tea cup out of which the beautiful dancing is enjoying a drink and…

… wait a minute! That’s an engagement ring on her finger, isn’t it?!?

Indeed it is, as Hough took to the Internet on Thursday to show off the positively huge (and gorgeous!) diamond bestowed upon her by Brooks Laich.

The hockey player proposed to Hough earlier this month.

“It was magical and sweet,” Hough wrote of the moment. “We were at home, romantic, and relaxed, which is perfectly very ‘us.’ We stood on the deck, watching the sun set over the lake and listening to our favorite songs.

"Not even for a second did I expect that beautiful, serene scene was about to become one of the most meaningful moments of our lives."

The Dancing with the Stars judge goes on to say she "blacked out" when Brooks got down on one knee and that she could only think of one reaction:

To "explode into his arms and experience pure joy from head to toe.”

On a related note, Laich will now become the first person to explode into Hough because the beauty has chosen to remain a virgin until marriage.

Adds Hough of her rock:

“The ring itself makes me feel very feminine and takes my breath away every time I look down, which I can’t stop doing, by the way.

"When it comes to taking it off, forget it.

"I’ll even wake up in the middle of the night to make sure it’s still there! I never thought I’d be the girl sticking her hand out to her friends and screaming in unison but here I am, shrieking all over Los Angeles.”
