i bought someone a wedding ring....

we went wedding ring shopping today.... just for the h2b.... the second engagement ring he bought me is a match set and the h2b is just hiding the matching wedding ring for now because he said he doesn't want to jinx our wedding.... we're doing the same thing we did for my official engagement ring, we'll shop together and both of us should like the ring.....


first jewelry shop we went to was koehler's in lansdale, which he playfully said is the "real" jewelry store because they've been around since dirt was invented (actually, it's just 85 years)..... i like that store..... it has lots of men's wedding rings to choose from and most of them are really nice...... we saw a lot that i like that he doesn't like and we also saw some that he likes that i don't like but we were able to find one that we both liked..... but we still want to explore our options so we went to another jewelry shop.....

we went to kay jewellers at montgomery mall...... the same place where the h2b bought all the rings he gave me............ they don't have a lot of male wedding rings to choose from but they have some decent ones and we actually saw 3 that we would want for him to try......... problem is they were excruciatingly slow.....they were attending to other customers but it's taking them forever to finish one customer...... i got impatient plus they looked like they're ignoring us so i told the h2b to just go to the jewelry shop next door which is gordon's.....

gordon's too doesn't have a lot of men's wedding ring choices but the h2b tried a couple...... we're ready to give up on that store when the sales lady who's waiting on us picked up a ring and asked the h2b to try it......... as soon as the saleslady handed the ring to the h2b we both started making faces........... the ring is exactly the type of ring that the h2b said he wouldn't pick out  but the h2b still tried it on just to be polite and shock of all shock, he actually liked the ring......

i was so surprised that i kept asking him if he's sure, but he was just giggling like a girl over that ring, lol...... he said he's shocked himself  and that he never imagined himself picking that ring but when he tried it on it just looks good on him...... he said there's something about the pattern and lines that makes it so attractive......

i must admit, that's not the kind of ring i would pick out for him...... i mean, don't get me wrong, it looks nice and everything and it's not something i would get embarrassed about when he started wearing it but i just have a different image on my brain on how his wedding ring would look like........... but man, that look on his face when he tried that ring on is just priceless..... i just don't have the heart to let that ring get away so i just told him he should get that ring and so we did..... and i offered to pay for it.....

so yes, i bought someone a wedding ring and that someone is my husband-to-be......that is one of the nicest feeling in the world.....
