Oh man, that was fun. The entire experience started a few weeks ago when my mom informed me that she expected me to go to prom with or against my will. So, I planned to make the best of it. I got in a group with some friends, namely Colby Sims, Jake Christensen, and Thomas Argyle. My date was Christina Kimbull. Over the course of two late night planning meetings by the 4 males where we spent over half the time being distracted and not getting anything productive done, we came up with a convoluted that was a lot of fun which went as follows. We picked everybody up about 10 o'clock and drove them to my house. Then (after making the mistake of letting my mom decide what the pictures were) we did a picture scavenger hunt around the Riverton/Bluffdale area where we had to take pictures of us doing various activities that were worth varying amounts of points. If we didn't score enough points, our parents would accompany us to the Prom. We didn't know how much was enough, so we had to get as much as possible.
After we finished our shenanigans, we stopped at the Bluffdale Park for a picnic lunch. Our activities ranged from flying kites, playing kickball, telling stupid jokes and stories, and basic running around. After everybody was sufficiently sunburned, we painted Easter Eggs in the wind.
After this we dropped everybody off for about 2 hours to get dressed, while it took the guys about 10 minutes.
After we picked everybody back up and got lost trying to find Thomas's house, we had his dad do our pictures for FREE! He does wedding pictures as a part-time professional and he did an AMAZING JOB! (His website is dbaphotography.com)
We then attended a lovely private dinner in Grandma Jello's Basement Restaurant. With a delicious meal cooked up by the moms, we savored steaks, potatoes, salad, green-bean casserole, and Sparkling Sprite.
Then we actually attended the dance. The music was loud, the moves fresh, and the sweaty armpits. It was an extremely enjoyable time of socializing and making a fool of yourself. We were so busy having a good time making up dance moves ranging from 'the shopping cart' to 'change the lightbulb' that we didn't get any pictures or videos.
We then ended by driving the Jake's house to enjoy Brownies and Ice Cream while winding down. It was an extremely enjoyable evening that I'm glad to have enjoyed. And Christina, when you read this, thank you for saying yes. You are a great person and I had a great time with you. ;)
