Happy Valentines Day

After an hour and a half of shopping we decided that Kays doesn't want to sell jewelry.  The sales clerk had an empty store (I quickly learned why) and simply pointed us in the direction of their rings and the catalogue.  Then watched from the register as if we might leap over the counter and grab it at any moment.

 

Luckily, the wonderful girl at ZALES was more than happy to cater to my endless uncertainty in what I wanted.  I bet she showed us two dozen rings over the course of three seperate visits.

 

I must say, I fell madly in love with this beautiful garnet ring that is fit for a queen.  This picture does in NO JUSTICE.  Serious, a side view of this ring is gorgeous.  Fist it sticks off your hand about a full half inch and the diamond embellishments go down the sides of the ring in a U-shape under the garnet.  Along the sides there are also two more garnets (one on each side) - the small rim of gold along the bottom of the central garnet in the picture shows where these two gems are.  It's absolutely fit for royalty.

But I digress.  It was simply far too much ring for me.  Don't get me wrong.  I'd definately wear it if he bought it.  But it's a lot of ring for such a small hand.

 

So the final decision was a beautiful cluster diamond ring.

And just so you don't FREAK out.  No, it is still NOT OFFICIAL!!  This was JUST my PRESENT!!

 

But you probably oughta get used to the general idea because we all know it's going to happen one of these days, we're just not gonna break the bank to get there in a hurry.  It's just a minor formality at this point and we'll get around to it when the stars align just right.

 

Meanwhile, I'm loving that ring!!

 

Have a great week!
