Dating has been a little tricky for Branden. Some how there is a big lack of girls his age. Our ward doesn't have any. His seminary class has only 3 with like 16 boys. So the first year he was old enough to go to prom, some of the girls he was friends with in our homeschool group weren't 16 yet. There weren't any in our ward or seminary for him to go with, so he went with a blind date. The second year, he was dating a girl from our homeschool group, but she had a cousin's wedding to go to, so he just went to prom with a group of guy friends.
This year was his year. He went to the local prom with one of the girls from seminary. It was girls ask, but Branden had hinted he was open for a date, so Brooklyn asked him. They were super cute together. I missed it because I went to women's conference at BYU that weekend. Branden said he was okay with that, and I got sent a bunch of pictures, so it was all good. And he also got to double with his BFF Jack.
He was also invited to be a prom date with a friend of his cousin Annabelle up in Reno. He bought his own plane ticket up to Reno and had a great time. They went up to Tahoe for some fun. And went to the prom just for a bit but also went to the church to play ball and hung out. Their cousin Seth also flew up from Vegas. Such a fun thing to have these cousins hanging out making memories together.
A group of friends in San Diego put on a "rodeo prom" or something like that. The kids were even making matches of who should take who. So Branden got set up to take a girl that lives up in San Marcos - Ava. He made a creative way to ask and had a fun time going to that prom too.
Branden is usually up for just about anything and has really made the most of his senior year.
