Because so many of the high school dances have gotten to be so ronchy, many have started having what we would call "modest prom" events. It is so awesome, the youth can go to these events, they are free or very cheap, and the clothing is modest, the music is clean, and the dancing is appropriate. Such a breath of fresh air for these kids. I have to hand it to them, they have an amazing ability to be around all the ludeness and walking porn, and still remain so wholesome. It really does amaze me how strong the youth are today!
This particular event was put on by our stake and a neighboring stake. Because Rod was partially in charge we "strongly encouraged" our boys to get dates and attend. I told them both at the beginning of the week that they could either find their own dates, or I would find one for them. it worked out great, they both had dates and went...
... and when they got home the words I heard were, "That was the most fun I have ever had at a dance!" and "By far the best dance I have ever been to." So needless to say. it was worth the coaxing.
There are still amazingly beautiful young ladies in this world, that dress modestly and know their self worth. I am glad my boys found a couple of them to go with (even if I helped a little),
Taylor and Lauren have known each other since before birth. They look just as good side by side as they did when they were two!
She is not just beautiful, she is fun and kind and just plain amazing! A lot like her mom!
Jenna is Brad's kind of date... he can choke her and she still smiles! They have also known each other since birth... fun to be in the same place for so long, that we have so many lifetime friends.
Sam and Paige went with them. Both great friends. Made it a perfect little group.
Brothers... first double date.
Go have fun!!!
