Jr. Prom 2012

Prom 2012. At first Alex was not going to go to his Jr. Prom. Then Emily, his girlfriend said that he HAS to go to his own Jr. Prom. Emily couldn't go because she is only 15, so Alex decided to ask Lauren Peery, Tyler's cousin. She is 15 but obviously she can go. Different rules, I guess.
Then the planning of how to ask Lauren started.
Alex settled with the flour bag invitation. And this is how it went.
Step 1.
He bought a 25 lb bag of flour and poked a hole in it and then taped it shut like he put something inside the bag, which he didn't. Instead, he put this note on it: "To find out who is asking you to PROM, look through the flour and you will receive your ANSWER."

Except, Alex didn't put anything inside the bag of flour.
Step 2.
Once Lauren had gone through the whole bag of flour, Alex would deliver the step 2, which is a flower that says: "Oops, wrong flower, Will you go to prom with me - Alex Larsen".


And this is how the whole thing went down. Tyler and Alex left about 10:30 at night to deliver the bag of flour at Lauren's house.  I told them to wait about 15-30 minutes before delivering the flower so she would have time to go through the flour at least a little bit. It turned out that Lauren was sifting the flour on her front porch when the boys were driving by. Alex threw the flower out the window and yelled at Lauren's sister, Ava to go and give the flower to Lauren. Not really according to the plan but close enough.

Alex never got a creative answer from Lauren except verbally so it is a date.
