It was the biggest rivalry game of the season. We had great seats on the 50 yard line - row 13. We arrived 5 hours before the game to tailgate. But it all came crashing down when I realized right before the start of the game that I had lost my ring. This ring is so special to me - I wear it almost every day. My husband bought it for me on our 2nd anniversary last year. It is a sterling silver band by artist Lyie Van Rycke ... and says "Je t'aime, un peu, beaucoup, à la folie, passionnément." (I love you a little, a lot, madly, passionately.)
It was very cold and my fingers must have shrunk or something. I had no idea where I had lost it. I was hoping it was in the tent bag or chairs when we were putting them up before the game. I was sad for the whole game ( and we lost in the last 3 seconds by a field goal - 23 to 21). When we went back to the truck, we looked around one more time and nothing. So we headed home. As we were trying to make our way out of the parking lot, someone knocked at my window. It was the girl from the tail gate next to us with my ring. They had come over to help us look earlier and when we moved the truck to leave, she must have seen it! And then for her to come running after us as we were leaving!
How lucky is that!!!
And our 3rd anniversary is tomorrow!
