So the only present that was kept a secret this year were these Tiffany Bow earrings. Unfortunately, every other gift was discovered weeks before Christmas......thanks to Ty's "Undercover Christmas Shopping". Nevertheless, I was so very excited to add them to my collection. I don't get wrapped over very many fancy things in life (I'm sorta a cheap date), but Tiffany & Co. has been a love of mine for years. Let me give some history on my taste for these fine silver pieces. I came to know "Tiffany" when I was a senior in high school, not because I came from a privaledged family...oh no. My childhood and teenage years were quite the opposite. I worked my ass off for everything I owned and struggled to make ends meet for me and for my single mom who worked as a LVN making 9 dollars an hour (not much oppurtunity in Paris, Texas)! I recieved a package a week before graduation and was surprised to see a little blue box that was very unfamiliar to me. The gift was from my sister, who sadly is still locked away at the state pen in Huntsville ,Texas. She sent it as a graduation present to me. How she was able to buy it and send it to me from prison is still a mystery. I realy don't think I ever even told her thank you, but the bangle bracelet she sent is a very special thing to me. Unknown to her that bracelet will remain my favorite.........
Guess where!! Ofcourse we had to stop into the Chili's in Colorado....it's a must!
