As Requested....

So we went to dinner at the Capital City Club. I wore this fantastic red dress I had gotten the day before at Dillard's. Jason had told the Club that it was my birthday...the reason he told me we were going...so there were balloons at our table and my menu (which I kept) said "Happy Birthday Sara Beth. Enjoy your Evening" at the top. The meal was absolutely amazing. It was really wonderful. No, really. Pause a moment for the meal.

Ok. The view was also wonderful. The city was all decorated for Christmas. Jason and I talked about various things through the meal while spying on the table next to us to figure out how to eat all those fancy pre-dinner things they bring. Good, but confusing. Dessert was fresh strawberries (which I want at our reception...strawberries everywhere!). So a delicious wonderful meal. I thought the night was over.

But, no. Jason told me he wanted more "us time" and since his parents were home why don't we go for a drive. I said that sounds great, why not ASF? I am surprised he didn't start laughing at me. ASF is exactly where he wanted to go. He was already trying to come up with an excuse for why we should go there. So we drive to ASF. Drive around the park. Pretty lights. Jason parks and says that he wants to see the art museum lit up and we can only do this from out of the car. I agree.

(Yes, I am still not suspicious about anything. Go on, you can think it - yes am stupid at times)

So we walk around to the front of ASF. (At the beginning of the night Jason has insisted I bring a coat. Nice.) We are standing on the stone patio in front of the big door beside the lake. I mention the stars are pretty. Jason gets down on one knee and says something to the effect of...

I love you. You will be in my heart forever but I want to make it official and permanent. I want us to be together forever. Will you marry me?

Then he pulls out the most gorgeous ring. Really. Beautiful. A-Mazing.

Oh, and I say yes!

Once we get back to his house, Jason's parents have champagne waiting for us. With, oh yes, hearts on the glasses. And the champagne was the same used by the 2004 Red Sox to celebrate their World Series victory. Life is sweet.

So friends mark your calendars...July 2006 I become Mrs. Jason R. Frye! Yippee!!
