I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day. I certainly did. My babe brought me a rose home last week and told me that I couldnt have the card until Tuesday and that we would be going out to supper that afternoon. Whoooohooo a date ;) !
Tuesday rolls around and he has this beautiful card waiting on my desk. I've turned it into a wallpaper for my computer (ohhh I wish that pic* up there was larger!!!). We had breakfast and ran a few errands (Big Lots and WalMart) and then dropped the stuff off home before heading out for supper. I asked him if we could go to JCPenneys so I could check on a jewelry set they had in their circular and he said sure. We got to Penneys and the set I had my eye on was sold out (no surprise considering the style and all...it IS Valentines Day and all) but they had one that was comparable and just as nice. It had a ring (which is all I was looking for anyhow), necklace and earrings all in ruby hearts and little diamond accents. The ring is really cute for what I was wanting it for and although it isnt what I have been hinting and begging for for like 2 years now, it looks just as cute. We decided that this would be my new engagment ring and the one I have been wearing would become the wedding band. We had to send it out for resizing, but when it comes back in 2 weeks, I will replace the XOXOXOX (diamonds in the O's) ring with the heart ring. This means we only have to get a band for him and that part of the wedding shopping is done. Not sure what Im going to do with the rest of the set yet as the chain's too delicate for me to feel comfy wearing (although that's an easy replacement)...am not really much on necklaces much right now but that could always change. As for the earrings, I could always make a gift outta those (as my ear piercings have been closed over for years and Im not sure I want to go through the hassle of repiercing them). *shrugz*
The poem in the card reads:
It's not easy for me to find just the right words,
so I dont often say what I should,
but if you're ever uncertain of how much I care,
just "listen" to my heart,
and you'll understand why my words could never begin to express
how special I think you are,
and just how much you mean to me.
*yep y'all...I got a real keeper!*
*Picture was the card he got for me.
