Blog Carnival-Favorite Gift

Our host for the December 18th Blog Carnival, LindaB, gave us these two wonderful options this go around:
1. Holidays - Christmas, Hanukkah & Others, what was your favorite gift received? Was it handmade?
2. What are your favorite color combinations? What do you create using those colors?
I decided to go with #1 :)
I've been given a lot of wonderful gifts over the years! As a kid I got great toys like cabbage patch dolls and a bicycle. As a teenager I got a phone for my room and then my own TV!!! As a young adult I started getting really cool clothes and some great jewelry from my grandma.
But I'd have to say my favorite gift was from Jesse :) On our first Christmas together I got one of the greatest gifts...a diamond ring!!! Not an engagement ring, but just a special ring :) So special that 9 years later it is still on the finger I put it on that night! And if I ever get that upgrade I've been waiting for (hint, hint) it will still remain on my finger...just a different one...LOL :)
It may not be big. It may not have been expensive. But it is mine and he gave it to me...that's all that matters to me :)

  2. That was a very special gift and that ring will be special to you forever. Even when it's upgraded to the ring you are hinting for, your first ring will continue to hold such wonderful memories. Thanks for sharing!
