Christmas Presents for Adults

Jason and I often use Christmas as an excuse to get each other bigger things we've wanted for awhile, and this year was no exception. For years I have wanted to replace the entryway chandelier. Jason knows how to replace lights, but we've held off on this one for so long because of the two story height. So we were just going to hire an electrician, but when we got it home, Jason said, "You know, if I could rent a tall ladder, I bet I could do it!" So rent a tall ladder he did, and now I have a beautiful new light! 
You may remember Jason lost his wedding ring in Lake Michigan this summer, and we decided it was past time to replace it. He wanted one similar to what he'd lost, but we were finding very few rings that were even gold, and not really the style he liked. So, we ended up finding a jeweler who could make him one based on a picture we showed him of the old one. It wasn't a perfect match, but he likes it, and it's good to have a ring on his finger again. The old inscription read, "I will love you forever." The new inscription reads, "I will STILL love you forever."

I am so glad he had it made, but een more importanty, that he likes it. And I can't wait to see your new light in person.

And kuddos to Jason! There is NO way I'd climb on that tall of a ladder, let alone replace a light! UGH!

THose tall lights are so scary to change! I got the replacement diamond for my lost one for my birthday a few years back. I was surprised at how much I missed my ring!
