Okay, so back in September, Dallin went on his first date. His Priests' Quorum was encouraging everyone to get dates and go as a group, so Dallin asked a gal that he's known and (secretly) liked since elementary school. I was surprised at how calm he was about the whole thing. He asked her by making a balloon bouquet with confetti and notes inside (no picture, darn it - it was cute).

After an afternoon of playing Frisbee golf at a local disk golf park, they got all dressed up for pictures. These were taken by one of the boys' sisters and it looks like they had some fun here, too.

| The whole group - I honestly don't know hardly any names. |

| The girls - I'm glad they got a picture of the corsages, 'cause these puppies ain't cheap. I gained new respect for boys having to pay for dates when I became a mom on the other side of the asking. |

| Horray! |
In all, Dallin had a great time. This group of boys was a great group to start off a first date with. They were all older and had been on several dates already - thus, they could drive and knew what to do. I was more nervous than Dallin was, but apparently I didn't need to be. All reports came back favorably. Oh, and Leon and I helped in the kitchen for their dinner. It was fun to be a "fly on the wall" and spy on them while they ate. Such fun and cute kids.

What I don't understand is this: how can you let an 11-year-old boy go on a date? 'Cause that's how old Dallin is, right? Yes, I'm *that* horrible aunt that says, "To me, you'll always be 11 years old!" And no one likes that aunt.
Dallin looks so handsome. What great boys you have!
Oh, Dallin looks handsome and his date looked beautiful. Wow! It looks like Dallin has grown up A LOT since a few years ago- What a fun date!
