PROM

Asking people to a high school dance is a BIG deal, especially to prom. Kaden wanted to ask a girl from his ward to the dance but didn't know how. So after walking through Wal-mart a couple minutes and bouncing ideas off each other we came up with the game plan: Jelly beans and lots of them!
Steve-o very excited, as you can tell, to get this going. We used 3 or 4 bags of jelly beans. . .


. . . And wrote one letter from his name on a bean.


Then put those beans with the others and a nice little note for her. Her task was to find all the letters in the jar and then put them together to figure out who was asking her to the dance.


This is the best part of the asking game. . . 'the door bell ditching'. I voluntered to drive, so I wouldn't miss out on the fun, because she didn't know Bingo. Kaden then ran to her house, left the clue, rang the doorbell, then booked it back to my car for the get away. Of course the stakes get higher as a car drives up to the house and while I scream for him to run faster:) Kaden received her answer the next night with a cheese pizza (his ultimate fav) with jelly beans spelling 'yes'. Thanks for letting me help Steve-o!
