First Date, First Dance

Chris got asked to his first dance, Sadie Hawkin's, which also happened to be his first date! All of us girls at home were extremely excited for this big event and forced Chris to open the canister of goldfish in front of us so we could see who it was. We screamed and yelled with lots of joy, while Chris rolled his eyes at all the drama.

Well we all know that the most important part is of this high school ritual is how you respond. It has to be a very cute and clever way. After many suggestions and lots of input from his sisters, Chris decided to buy a real goldfish, place it in a fish bowl and respond with a poster that stated "You got me hook, line and sinker!" The poster included a bobber with a cute drawing of a fish and fishing pole. A couple of days later the answer was delivered to her front door.


In all the excitement and ritual of giving the answer, mom totally forgot to ask, "When is the dance?" "What!! We are gone that weekend." "You mean you would pick a girl over your mother's trip back to her home town!"


Looks like they had a great day date at the lake!

Hopefully, mom will get to see all the pictures of the dance.

I can't believe I missed this important event!
