Asante and I just got engaged Friday the 12th!!! We went to McCormick and Schmick’s on the Plaza for dinner to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Dinner was amazing... mussels, salad, shrimp, crab cakes and filet. Of course we also got heaven on a plate called the chocolate bag; those of you that have been there know what I’m talking about. We left dinner and course it was freezing, thank you Kansas. I wanted to go straight inside and down to the car but Asante wanted to walk down the stairs. Unfortunately for him I am stubborn so I just stood there as he started to walk down the steps. He got creative and acted like he fell and hurt his knee to get me to walk over to the top of the steps. As he lifted his head he also lifted his hand holding a ring box and asked me to marry him. I was so surprised, my first response was “are you serious?!?” Once I figured out what was going on I our course said yes! I was then totally fine with walking down the stairs to the car! My brother, Eric and his girlfriend, Kacy meet up with us for drinks afterwards because Kacy lives on the plaza. It was an amazing night; I’m the luckiest girl in the world!! There have been so many engagement/weddings in the last few months; I cannot wait to share ours with everyone!!!
