December 2006 RNC Calendar - Laura's wedding ring

I'd assume it's just quick, country way of saying creatures, kinda like 'vittles' is the country way of saying victuals( food).
Ohio, I saw my dr. last week and we talked about the flu (and bird flu, too). He didn't tell me to get the shot (I wouldn't have anyway) so I suppose he's conservative like your dr, snugs. I'm glad you're improving! It took me awhile to get over mine, too.
RE: Your tagline--you've had another wedding? CONGRATS!
snugs, in your position as caregiver to your dad, and visiting your mum, you are very wise to get the flu shot. I hope you don't get sick! The flu can be very dangerous to elderly people.
I'm with you two RE: Actors/actresses . . . if they are very liberal and speak against the Pres., I cannot bring myself to watch their movies/shows. Same with singers. OTOH, it's nice to know SOME Hollywood people ARE for the "right" things.
I've been trying to get a good look at Laura's wedding ring for a long time, especially after hillary clinton picked up Laura's left hand at some function a few years ago, looked at her ring and gave her a snarky comment about how simple it is.
On the RNC calendar for December, there is a good picture of it. It has a large center diamond with two smaller, but still large, diamonds flanking it. Knowing that W gave Laura this ring in the later years of their marriage, I thought, It looks as though he selected that one large diamond to symbolize Laura and his love for her, and added one smaller diamond on either side to represent each of their twins.
So if this is the case, every time Laura sees that ring, it is a reminder of how valuable her life and love are to her husband, and how their combined love gave them two precious jewels in Barbara and Jenna.
To hillary, it's just a way to get in a dig at Laura.
To Laura, it's an ever-present reminder of giving love and being loved.
Laura, you are more precious even than gold and anyone with a heart knows it!
Aww what you said was so beautiful! I've always wanted to see her ring up close, but I wont be getting an rnc calendar...oh well.
I didn't know Hillary gave Laura a snarky comment on how simple it is when she looked at it. I've seen pictures of her looking at Laura's ring, but I figured she was actually saying how big and pretty it is. She's just jealous that she doesn't have a wonderful husband like George to love her like he loves Laura. But, from what I can tell, Laura's ring his huge.
I'll scan the RNC calendar photo that displays her ring and post it on the Dose -- by Wednesday when I do Sanity Island, if not sooner. Will ping you.
Us young kids don't need them, but you, on the other hand................
hehehe.........
I had to go to our bedroom to look at the calendar and notice the ring (btw, I LOVE December's picture! I may cut and paste January - December next year on top of December's calendar and leave this tender, loving picture up).
You are so right and perceptive, Gretchen. It is a perfect illustration of their relationship, and their character. Not ostentatious.....no show, just for show.......but great beauty and meaning, and a very real and genuine picture of what Laura means to her beloved.
You may be right about the two outer stones representing the twins, too. The human result of their love for each other represented on this beautiful ring........nice thought, and right in character, I'd say.....
snugs.......as a caregiver, you're one of the folks who needs to get a flu shot. I'm glad you got one. If I were caring for my parents, I'd get one too.
Yeah, that's what I was (unsuccessfully) trying to get at. It's not that I think either of them are good people. I just think amoral is a little much.
They haven't already shown it. It's on Wednesday at 8 pm.
December 2006 RNC Calendar - Laura's wedding ring
Such a beautiful couple!
Such a cute couple! Thank you for the close up...her ring is gorgeous and huge. Lucky woman! When did he give her, her engagement ring? Wasn't it recent?
WooHoo!! Thanks so much. And I don't have to be anywhere this Wednesday, so I'm putting it on my calendar right now!
I'm a HUGH early music fan. Most of my Christmas music is either a cappela Gregorian chant, Medieval, Renaissance, or Baroque. I also like Celtic and sorta folky/New Age-y instrumental Christmas music. Of course, every now and then I like listening to a little of "Rockin Around the Christmas Tree", or "Santa Claus is Back in Town". I guess you could call that eclectic. ;o)
Goobers! Well, they'll get their wish, won't they? LOL!
My memory isn't the best but I do believe it's been in the last several years -- maybe while he was governor of Texas or since becoming president?
THANKS, first of all, for the great picture of our First Couple!
The engagement ring was a gift the Christmas before the first inauguration. That was also the Christmas Jenna had her appendix out!
