Our first of many "Thursday" zooms. When setting up this call, Chris told Maggie that he wanted to discuss his resume and talk through career options. After a 2-hour discussion covering many topics other than his resume, Maggie had a strong feeling Chris was hoping for more than career advice ;)

This is when Maggie saw the ring for the first time—yes, before the engagement! We are so honored that Chris' Grandma and Grandpa chose to gift this to us. We love this ring for many reasons: We love that the sapphire symbolizes faithfulness and royalty, that the ring was made where Chris was born in Kingsport, TN, and that it represents family and generosity because it is a gift from his grandparents.
