My 30th anniversary present
I've been so busy lately, I haven't had time to post pictures of Gary's 30th anniversary present to me. Now, I'm NOT a diamond girl, but the 3 diamonds in the middle ring are some that Gary inherited from his dad. They were in his mom's wedding ring. He had 4 other diamonds set into birthstone necklaces, one for each of his sisters. There were 3 diamonds left and he has wanted to put them in a ring for me, but I was resistant. I guess he knew if he had it done for our 30th anniversary, I couldn't say no. LOL! The two eternity bands on either side of the middle ring are just sterling silver bands with cubic zirconia that I have had for a long time - but the 3 rings together look really pretty and you can't tell they aren't really diamonds. Maybe someday I'll get diamond eternity bands. Nah, probably not. This ring is way more glitzy than I am used to. I've never had any diamonds in my wedding ring, only a gold band, and then Gary and I got silver bands for our 25th anniversary. Sorry the pics aren't very good.

Gayle I love your rings. I've never been a jewelry person before, but since inheriting all of Mom's jewelry, I've turned into one I just love diamonds and all the glitter.
Not sure when it was but HAPPY 3OTH ANNIVERSARY!!!

Happy Anniversary to you and Gary!!!
The ring is beautiful, and so sweet of Gary. I like the 3 rings together. I love adding cubics to real stones. I am a glitter girl. Wear it well, and in good health!

Awww......how special to use his Mother's diamonds!! Gary is a keeper for sure!! When they put three diamonds together like that they call it a Past, Present, Future ring. How perfect for your anniversary!! Happy Anniversary......even if it is late!!! Lots of love to you and Gary!!

Wow Gayle.... i just love the ring, and it does look nice with the others.
I have always been very into jewelry, i have some of my Mums and Auntys, and though i dont like to wear a lot of it at one time, i do wear selected pieces. I love cleaning my jewelry too, gives me satisfaction to see it all sparkly
