So more to come later on Walk MS and my Birthday, this post will be a quick recap of the details of the journey and engagement.
It was back in the first of October... for all you big baseball fans you know this is Baseball playoff time and the Red Sox were playing in the American League playoffs. I was much more interested in them then any guy who showed interest, so when Adam called wanting to go out on a playoff game night, I said yes with a few stipulations. I had to watch the Sox's game... he consented oh so willingly... even though he really had very little interest in watching the game.. So we got my fave Thai food-to-go at Benja Thai and headed back to my brother's house to watch a little Red Sox play-off action. The Red Sox won and what was most important..... was that Adam now knew what he was getting into when he wanted to get involved with me. The Red Sox mean a lot to me.. Really the rest of the night we just hung out, chatted, and got some ice cream.
So lets fast forward almost 6 months later..... after many more fantastic dates and good times with Adam..... we end up back at Benja's Thai food for dinner for the first time since our first date. Adam is looking hot... and the food is yummy. After dinner Adam surprises me with an early birthday present and card. So I open it and find nothing else other than Red Sox underwear- pretty much best present ever and is going to go perfect with the Red Sox jersey with 'Wittwer' on the back Adam gave me for Christmas. He didn't have time but is going to get "Butterfield"- (my soon to be last name) embroidered on the rear. Nothing better than a little Red Sox in the off-season. Next because it was so nice outside we headed up to Dixie Red Hill to look out over St. George. It was fantastic, romantic, and beautiful. We just chatted... and a bit later Adam said some amazing, thoughtful things to me (pretty sure you dont want to know details here), got down on his knee, presented me with the most beautiful diamond ring ever and asked if I would marry him! Of course I said YES! I love the kid and can't wait to spend forever with him. We went back to his truck and he had Sparkling cider, candy corns, and chocolate waiting to celebrate!! He knows me pretty well I must say.
So really it was the perfect night. All of my fave things..... Adam(first and foremost), Thai food, the Red Sox, Red Rock, St. George Beauty, Diamonds, Kisses, Candy Corns, and Nice Weather!
So the big day is scheduled for May 29th, 2009 in the St. George Temple.
It's only a few months away so I have lots and lots to do! Cant wait to see many of you then.
Here we are after he asked me....


My ring... Thanks babe... it's perfect!
