A productive Sunday

Sunday, December 7, 2008

After waking up with what is turning out to be a head cold, I decided to stay home, dye my hair and finish some house "stuff". I then met up with Al for lunch at American Roadhouse.
*sidenote* while waiting for a table at American Roadhouse, I ran across the street to check out LaRaine's Boutique. I had never been there before and was really impressed with the selection they had. I'm hoping to make an appointment there in the relatively near future, to check out some dresses and accessories. I'm still looking for a bolero to wear for the ceremony.

From there we went to Worthmore Jewelers.

We were referred to them by Erin who purchased her wedding band at their store. We walked in and I was immediately excited to check out their selection. They had all these designers and amazing unique pieces. We found a few rings that Al liked, but again, nothing that was "the one".
I found two options for me. One was a 14k white gold ring with channel set round cut diamonds that wrapped around 3/4. The other was a replica of the ring I found on bluenile.com that is white gold with pave set diamonds on three sides that wrapped around 3/4. Our experience there was quite awesome (100 million times better than any visit to Rubin bros.) and we really enjoyed their entire collection of different and unique jewelry. While we were there, we also purchased Al's promise ring. He had randomly found a claddagh that he really liked that I also REALLY liked. It's a stainless steel spinner with a claddagh "etching". I bought it for him for him to wear as his promise ring/engagement ring.

So, we're still looking, but I'm hoping we'll find something soon.
