When a Ring isn't just a Ring

Today was "Cheyenne Day", which to any state government employee means 4 hours leave time granted by the Governor so we can participate in the insanity that is Cheyenne Frontier Days (yee haw). Pretty cool stuff. Christopher and I both used the time to...well, do a bunch of random things, including stalking the FedEx truck from between our blinds. Packages from UPS and FedEx are always special, of late...but today was a BIG day. Why so big, you ask? Today was the day that Christopher's ring, which we designed sight-unseen online at Avant Garde Titanium Style, was scheduled to arrive on our front step. And, not realizing we had to sign for them to leave it, I was very glad we didn't do anything fun on Cheyenne Day and stayed put at home. Woo hoo!

Review: We are very pleased with the ring. We ordered a polished titanium tension-mount band with a .10k diamond in the center, and platinum inlay. The packaging was very basic, just a FedEx envelope inside a FedEx box, and the ring comes in this dowdy leather ring box. But - the important part of the delivery was perfect. It fits Christopher's finger like a glove (a 1-fingered glove) and is just what he wanted (that we couldn't find in a store anywhere). Without further adieu, here it is - once again, in all its "haute" glory (because it's fun to say 'haute').

We also took some photos of the trio of rings; oh so exciting and super dorky (got some new photography equipment and had to try it out, of course!).
