It was so cute, about 2 weeks before the dance a huge poster board arrived on our door step with a box if goldfish crackers. On the poster board the invitation was written to the dance in a really cute way and then inside the cracker box was the name of the girl who asked him (but first he had to dig through all of the crackers (coming up empty several times with notes that said "keep looking"). Once this was done, he had to come up with a way to answer her that was just as clever. He went and bought a goldfish and put it in a bowl and covered the outside of the bowl with swedish fish candy (under one of these gummy fish was his answer). I thought that was clever.
They had a great time at the dance and went with 7 other couples. Their day date was a scavenger hunt at the mall and all 16 kids participated. Fun stuff! I can't believe how fast they grow. I remember being 16 like it was yesterday and now my kid is that old!!!
