The key words for the ticket were:
best dressed
dinner
dance lessons
dancing
We had to go. So I called up my cousins Quincie and Macall (2nd Attendant to Miss Provo-um hello beautiful dresses!) I think I borrow a dress from them every year! Actually I am going to have to borrow one of Q's dresses for our anniversary because it is spectacular.
I picked a shimmery blue and got dressed up for a night out. Who does that?
That alone made the night, or so I thought.
Obviously when you think "Institute dance" you really just picture what? The scriptures and pictures of the prophets on the walls. I will admit I saw pictures of prophets and such but let me tell you this was no ordinary thingy to get you interested in institute.
This was everyone is dressed up creating an amazing vibe of "specialness".
This was dinner, as in like 5 different yummy soups, rolls, salads and drinks and brownies.
This was a live band affair. Oh my goodness what a difference a live band makes to a party. It classes everything up a few notches and adds to the atmosphere!
This was get your picture taken for free to remember your night.
This was laughing and dancing and flirting with my hubs.
This was acting ridiculous and loving every moment of it.
This was just about me and him.
This was the most fun we've had in a long time.

And this date totally did make me want to go to institute- they can sure through a party.
This made the list for one of my all time favorite dates with Jay- for sure in the top 5! I think it might even be my favorite. The night was perfect.
