Orem High School Homecoming 2009

Shaun Goes to
Orem High Homecoming
His 1st Date Dance

September 26, 2009

Shaun took Dani Gardner to the Orem High School Homecoming dance. The kids always have a day date before the dance. Shaun was with a group of 4 other boys and their dates. Out of their group of 10 people, 8 of them are in marching band and they had a marching band competition that afternoon. They decided they had time for breakfast before the competition so they each brought something and they had breakfast in our backyard. The boys cooked bacon and French toast and they had orange juice with it. Charlie was out with them most of the time and I think that he had more than he should have of their breakfast - the rest of the day he acted like he didn't feel very good. After breakfast they played Croquet and Blongo Ball. They seemed to have a fun time together. It was a little bit funny that one time when we looked outside to see how they were doing they were standing in a circle talking and the girls were on one side and the boys were on the other.

We forgot to tell Shaun everything that we should have about going to a dance. We forgot to tell him that he needed to order a corsage ahead of time. Since he didn't have one ordered we had to find one and it wasn't a very cheap one - but it was very pretty. I am glad the florist could do one that day.

The kids all went to their marching band competition in Payson. After they were done, we stayed to watch the final 2 bands and then we brought Shaun and 3 other kids home. They had 20 minutes until they were supposed to be at Steven's house for dinner. Steven got his mom to have it 30 minutes later so the kids had about 50 minutes to get ready.

I took Shaun to pick up Dani (since he doesn't have his license yet) and since they missed dance pictures at the school we had to get some when Shaun picked her up. There was me, Dani's grandma, brother, and sister all taking pictures of them.


They went to Steven's house for dinner. Shaun couldn't believe how nice she made it. They had Chicken Cordon Blue, baked potatoes, string beans with bacon in it, and a salad. Shaun said there was a nice tablecloth, candles and music. Steven's mom even dished up the plates in an elegant way and served them to the kids. Shaun was very impressed. After the dance they went back to Steven's house for desert of a chocolate fountain with everything. There was angel food cake, Oreo cookies, marshmallows, cinnamon bears, strawberries and lots of other things to be dipped in chocolate.
Shaun had a good time.
