DAY 11
Something old
My mommy is here visiting! YAY! She came early this morning and we took Charleigh to Gopher Glenn-an apple farm in San Luis Obispo. We bought some Pink Ladys (apples that is) and I made a yummy Dutch Apple Pie (how is that different than normal apple pie?...it has a scrumptious crumb topping instead of crust!) So my something old-my mom wouldn't let me take a picture of her...hehe ;) And I had a tough time figuring out what else around here was older than her....juuuust kiiiding :) But then the thought occurred to me. I have always loved my mom's wedding ring. It is very unique and one-of-a-kind. I also love the story behind it. My dad knew exactly what he wanted to give her as an engagement/wedding band-so instead of going and picking out a ring he actually drew this one up, and had the jeweler make an exact copy of his drawing! Pretty romantic huh? Who knew! ;) So this is my something old. Not because my mom is old...but because I have always loved this ring and what it stands for in their relationship-a commitment that they have kept for the past 33 years. Wow.
