Secretly about two years ago, Clay's brother and sister-in-law were making a trip to a private jeweler in Austin and Clay and I went with them. I was sized for a ring and we even talked about what I liked.
Since then, my tasted has changed a little but and I actually ventured out to a large jeweler with one of my bridesmaids to try on some rings about a year ago. I must say, rings look totally different on your hand than they do in a picture.
I decided on what my dream ring would look like and sent it to Clay. This was last January. When I told him what I wanted, I also told him that I didn't want to discuss this anymore so that I didn't really know when it was coming.
In January, little did I know Clay had gone to our jeweler to start talking about my ring.
Some point between January and May when he proposed, the jeweler found what he thought was the perfect diamond.
Clay went over to take a look at it and decided that indeed it was perfect.
Next started the process of designed the remaining part of the ring. Once Clay had decided on what it would look like, there wasn't going to be enough time between that day and proposal day.
From what I have heard, Clay was a little stressed about it but made the right decision in the end. He had our jeweler place the diamond on a simple silver band.
When Clay actually proposed to me, he kept telling me 'this isn't the ring' 'this isn't the ring.'
In order to finish the ring we need to go to Houston, so, off to Houston we went...
