I’m not a huge jewelry person.<\/p>\n

I like to keep things pretty simple…and given the choice between a Louis Vuitton and a pair of diamond earrings, I would definitely choose the bag. I have a great pair of CZ solitaires that look like the real thing. When Vann proposed to me, he told me that my engagement ring was it – there would be no upgrades…which is fine with me (he has spectacular taste).<\/p>\n

All of that said, with the impending arrival of my second baby I knew I wanted something to commemorate the occasion. If you’ve ever seen this kind of jewelry, it can sometimes be really cheesy…and I’m picky, so poor Vann has been looking for just the right thing.<\/p>\n

When this charm necklace arrived in the mail last week, I was in love. Wendy, my sweet high school friend, sent it to me. I think it really says something about our 14 year friendship, don’t you? She totally hit it out of the ballpark, and I will cherish it forever.<\/p>\n
