My Wedding Ring Transformation by Gramercy Gifts

Let me preface this post by telling you that I never intended this to be a post. But when I fall in love with companies, it is hard for me not to blog about them because I want to share it with my fellow OC moms!  So please let me tell you about my my recent wedding ring transformation (squeee!) Bruce Lambert of Gramercy Gifts in Newport Beach did for us.

I hope this post might be helpful for anyone that someday might want a new piece of jewelry made but don’t have a jeweler to go to.

So my husband and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary in November. Over the last year we (um, if I am being honest, I) started talking about how it would be fun to get my diamond put into a setting for this milestone anniversary. Lucky for me, hubby was on board.

But we didn’t have a family jeweler and I actually had NO idea where to go. I see jewelers all over the place, but I didn’t want to go to a random jeweler without a personal recommendation.

Going to see a live taping of the Oprah Show was always a dream of mine. It was sadly one of those Bucket List items that I didn’t get to check off.

But last week when I was invited by The Go To Mom Kimberley to attend a special Sony Event for Social Media Moms, I finally got my “Oprah Moment” when I found out that we were not only going to be learning about the new Sony Projector Handycam, but that we were also getting the HDR-PJ10 model to keep!

You get a Projector Handycam! You get a Projector Handycam! What?! It didn’t even feel real! Christmas certainly came early for me this year!

Now that I have let the reality sink in that this baby is really is mine, I have become obsessed with shooting video and exploring all the functions. Seeing that it is approaching December I wanted to share this camcorder with you because it would make the best holiday gift ever!

Obsession: Chobani Greek Yogurt

I think I have been watching too much Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen because I have been saying “I am obsessed with…” so much lately that my husband now asks me Andy-style, “what three things are you obsessed with this week?” Any other Real Housewives and Andy fans out there with me??
