In fact when I meet new people my mind just starts realing for things to say...it just doesn't come naturally! Amazingly most of my bff's are pure sanguine!<BR/><BR/>So glad you found your ring that must have been so exciting! I have a ring that I lost (I know it was really stolen) I won't even say which one it was...too awful to confess!!<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>SuziSuzi Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16875719985951341414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-74999911816113051422008-11-11T00:18:00.000-05:002008-11-11T00:18:00.000-05:00Aww - my husband went to A&M for grad school a...Aww - my husband went to A&M for grad school and was an Aggie for two years.

I took my oldest daughter to the Auburn game this past weekend and took her to my dorm, rolling Toomer's Corner, etc. It was awesome and, even though she's only 7, I can't wait for her to be a student there!<BR/>I have also seen some pictures of people when they get their Aggie Ring. They are all doing the "thumbs up." What does that mean? Is it significant somehow?<BR/>Oh, I know so many people who take off their jewelry as soon as they get home - I am totally opposite. I haven't taken off my wedding/engagement rings in almost 12 years. I wear them constantly. I also wear an emerald ring (my oldest daughter's birthstone) that my husband gave me for my 1st Mother's Day. I never take it off, either. I will only take it off at her wedding when the ring becomes hers.<BR/>Glad you found your rings!3girlsmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11177255057355991922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-18619770845559710242008-11-10T13:29:00.000-05:002008-11-10T13:29:00.000-05:00So glad you found your ring!

But because we married young and I transferred from UT to A&M, I actually had 132 hours when I graduated--yuk! Ahem. Anyway, I had a James Avery UT dangle ring (by the way I love to say dangle, dangle, dangle) and when I transferred to A&M, I felt the pressure and didn't wear it. Chris bought me an A&M dangle ring. (Of course he has a big, honkin' Aggie ring that he wears every single day.) When we moved to CO, I lost the dangle to the ring, then I found the dangle and lost the ring itself. THEN! I bought a new ring and lost the dangle. Dang.<BR/><BR/>So in San Antonio this summer, I made a special trip to James Avery to try and replace my dang dangle. They had an A&M dangle the size of three of my knuckles, so I ended up getting a heart. And that's the whole dangle story...<BR/><BR/>PS This Aggie would love to have you come stay in Colorado!Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794673914973256109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-24080236619801846142008-11-09T20:40:00.000-05:002008-11-09T20:40:00.000-05:00Girl, look at ALL our waists!

It's almost like a piece of you is missing when something special like a HS/College ring is missing. Or a special ring given by a special someone. Isn't it neat that God knows the exact time we'll find what we've lost and is there to celebrate with us!jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13836907024471611566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-59941692860366749852008-11-09T15:46:00.000-05:002008-11-09T15:46:00.000-05:00I had a similiar experience with my engagement ri...I had a similiar experience with my engagement ring. To make a long story short, my engagement ring was lost the Christmas my younger daughter was nine months old and stayed lost for thirteen years. I found it in a jewelry pouch among some baby clothes that had been put in the attic and survived storage and a move to a new house. I had felt horrible, as you can imagine, not only for losing my engagement ring but the stone was from the engagement ring of my husband's mother who had passed away before we met. I have a wonderful husband who never onced fussed or complained about me losing the ring. <BR/><BR/>I am glad that you found your ring.janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04634227268485798272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-80036454262421442382008-11-09T13:49:00.000-05:002008-11-09T13:49:00.000-05:00YAY on finding your ring!!!

Now that I've had my baby three weeks ago, I sadly still can't fit my Aggie Ring back on my finger. However, my hubs surprised me with putting a diamond in the shield while it was off my oh-so-swollen fingers.
