So ladies, we went back to the family jeweler today. It was my second visit and BF's first visit and we were hoping to be able to first, make a decision and second, if we decided to go with the cathedral style like the one in LA, to see if the family guy could get that for us.
Well, we had also looked at other rings in the mean time, trying to help narrow it down or make a decision. So, when we walked up to the family jeweler's counter, I was expecting to try on the "second choice" ring and not like it as much as the "first choice" one we'd found in LA. I was expecting to ask him to find a way to get us something more like the "first choice" one. BUT, when I put it back on my hand, I loved it in a way that I hadn't when I first tried it one last week! It was actually much prettier in person than I'd remembered. Anyway, long story short, that ring, along with that sparkly diamond, are now being set and sized just for me!! BF is hoping to make it back next week to pay the other half and pick it up. So - guess what I'm hoping to find in my Christmas stocking (or advent calendar or under the tree, or at New Year's or in a box for my upcoming birthday - whatever!!)?!?!? Color me EXCITED!!
