Mom's "new" ring!

In going through some of Mom's jewelry with Meg the other day we came across some really nice looking pieces.  When we packed everything, it was the scoop and bag method and we didn't look at anything that closely.  We found what I thought was Mom's wedding rings (she says no) and her mother's ring.  She wanted to wear the mother's ring but it was too big.  In talking to Johnny and Ann about it at lunch on Saturday, Johnny called a friend of his that is a jeweler and made arrangements to have it sized on Sunday.  After Nick's commissioning (which was awesome, by the way!!) we went to Tim's place of business and showed him the ring.  After checking it he said it was really worn out.  Two stones were being held in by two prongs, the stones were worn down.  He could rebuild it or just size it.  We went for the just size it.  Well being the amazing guy he is, he resized it and somehow brought pieces of gold up and made prongs to hold the stones in.  He cleaned it all up and it looks brand new!!  What a sweetheart of a guy.  He even came in on Sunday to do it.  She is so happy to have it again!  And while we waited for the ring Marc and I found an antique hutch that we bought so that we can finally get all of our good dishes and glasses out of storage and start using them again!!  Here is a picture that Tim took while we were waiting for the ring.  Marc was wandering!!  Make sure and admire her ring when you see her!

Oh, and Mom has on one of the three new shirts that we bought during the weekend.  It was fun to have her hang out with us!!
