Commencement or Prom? All the same to me!!

Most call it Prom, but here in Idaho Falls they call it Commencement. Jesse and his friend Brenden had been talking about it for a while they they were going to ask girls to the dance, but Jesse got pretty close to the wire before he got around to asking her, he didn't think it through good enough that she needed enough time to find a dress, but it all worked out and they looked GREAT!!! Jesse asked a girl named Jamie, he didn't know her real well, but she's on the stake youth committee with him. He bought a fish, vase, red marbles (because of Hillcrest colors) and some ribbon. Then wrote a poem Of all the fish In the Sea Will you go To Commencement with me? It was so funny watching him and his friend get ready to take it to her house. Dude we have to make it look really great and leave it on her front porch and then run! I told them just to have someone deliver it for them but they were adamant that wasn't how it was done! So be it! They took it to her house at 9 at night and rang the doorbell and ran! Because that's how its done. Stupid me didn't get a picture though! A few day's later she said yes! A drop and run deliver on the front porch (of course, cuz that's how its done!) of a frog with a crown and some kisses. And a note with a cute poem that said YES! I can't find the note so I don't know exactly what it said, sorry!!! But yes is all that matters right??
He's so cute!!!! Ok...so I am a bit of a stalker I guess. The kids didn't really want to come back to our house to save time, so I followed him over to Jamie's house, which was fun because I got a picture of him knocking on the front door and one of him putting her into the car! Her mom was really nice to let me come in and snap a few pics!! I love the cute picture of the shoes!

The kids did a day date first, they picked up the girls at 11am, and went to his friend Ryans house, Jesse thought they were doing lunch, but they just had root beer floats. The theme for commencement was Masquerade, so they went out and bought stuff to make masks for the evening. Then went back to Ryan's house and made them. I think the boys had a ton more planned, but the masks took longer than planned. About 3:30 they took the girls back home to get ready for the evening and then picked them back up at 6:30. They went back to Ryan's house for dinner, we all chipped in although Ryan did the most. They had steak and baked potatoes, a salad and rolls and then dessert. The picture's below were taken at Ryan's house and I didn't stalk them there instead I stole them off Ryan's facebook page!!!! They went to the dance and then back to Ryans house to watch a movie and had the girls home by about 12:30. All in all it seems like they had a really great time! I hope he made some great memories!!!!
