The Ring

While Tiff and I were getting the ring cleaned Friday we both realized that, although we have tried to share every part of the process before getting married, we have not posted a picture or even mentioned the ring. As an aside, We were able to pick out my band, which looks pretty awesome.

The picture here was taken the day after the proposal in TownToon at Disneyland. Shortly after, while getting our picture taken with Mickey and Minnie, Minnie attempted to remove the ring from Tiff's finger and run off with it! I assumed that this would be against Disney policy but I guess sometimes temptation gets the best of us. This picture does not do the ring absolute justice but I have caught Tiffany staring at it while driving, which makes for some interesting trips to the grocery store.

The ring is unique in that it has what the gals at the jewelery store call a "European Shank." This means the bottom of the ring is squared off to minimize spinning, and what I like, maximizing her ability to write on the board in the classroom (for those who do not know- Tiff is student teaching right now). It also came with a perfectly matching wedding band which Tiff has not been able to see or put on.

More to come soon,
Travis

Blast off!!

Just Shoot Us! (Deciding on a Photographer)

Scratch one off the list! We have finally settled on a photographer. Her name is Debbie Brown and we are very excited to have her shoot the wedding as well as our engagement photos. The best part of finding a photographer was getting to meet with several pleasant and professional people. The worst part of finding a photographer was getting to meet with several pleasant and professional people and then having to make a decision on which one to hire for the wedding. We chose Debbie not only because we liked her work but because we and our wedding planner get along well with her.

Now we just have to decide on where to take the engagement photos...
