He loves me!

I've always wanted an anniversary band to go with my wedding ring. I dreamed of getting  channel-set blue sapphires and diamonds, but decided over the years I would settle for a plain gold band. Terry has bought me other rings and jewelry, but it's never been the "dream" piece for me. And it's never been an anniversary band.

A department store is closing in Riverdale, and everything is significantly discounted. I found my dream ring, and couldn't buy it then and there because that wouldn't be fair to Terry--it is a wedding ring addition. The clerk kept commenting on how well it matched my wedding ring, and wasn't supposed to save anything--but she set it behind the counter for me.  So I got home and emailed Terry with the price and discount, sent him a picture I found online of a ring similar, and then called him.

He said it was okay!!!! I piled the kids back in the car and claimed my ring!!!!!! I love it. :) It's beautiful, and it's so worth the 6 year wait! I'll add pictures later. Plus it fit my finger right away--what are the chances of THAT?

It's blurry, but yes, there's a new band!

  1. Since I was the one to take the picture of the rings on the two of your hands intertwined after your wedding, I want to see a picture of your hand with this lovely new band on it! :)

  2. Sounds beautiful - and very sentimental even though you've waited 6 years. Would love to see the picture.
