Happy 4 Year Anniversary!!!!

Today is the 4 year anniversary of when we moved into our house! I remember the night we came to look at it after weeks of searching. The lock-box on the door wasn't working and we couldn't get inside. We waited around with our realtor until the couple came back and they let us in. We knew immediately that this was our home. Late that night, at around 11:00 p.m., with two very tired children, we signed the papers putting in our offer. The next day we received the call that the house was ours! The boys were most excited about having stairs :)




In other news, I picked up the ring that my grandmother left to me at the jeweler's today. I've had it for years but have never worn it because the band was broken and it was a size+ too large. I realized that keeping it in my jewelry box was rather pathetic and went to have it repaired/sized. They told me that it was so old that it was possible that when they tried to bend the band, it could break in three places - it didn't, but it's still very fragile and I've been warned to wear it only occasionally. Isn't it pretty?



While at the jeweler's I had my wedding rings cleaned and noticed that one of the prongs of my engagement ring had broken off. The jeweler-man checked the other prongs and said that they were very worn down as well and that my setting would need to be replaced. So, I'm glad that I found this out before I lost the diamond, that would have really sucked. Big Sexy is doing research to get me a fancy new ring. He's awesome like that!
