Shannah's First Date (of which I witnessed) Yesterday!

For those of you who didn't hear the story before...

Stephen Richardson asked our very own Shannah out on a date (everybody say awwwwwww! cuuuute!). Which breaks rule #1: don't ask people out that are in your own ward!

Since we had to do a group thing, I tagged along while dragging my brother, Jarron, behind. Jarron's friend, Austin Evertson, came too, to keep Jarron company. Britney (Shan's sister) was supposed to come with me, but she couldn't :(

We walked over to the movie theater, which made us late, but we got to "Aliens in the Attic" just in time (it was a so-so movie). Gracie Nay and her date, Joey Something-Or-Other-Junior Class President-Guy met us there with his friends.

Stephen was, of course, his chivalorous self. But in my opinion, he was trying too hard, so it became awkward. A lot.

We went to Baskin Robbins afterward. Stephen attempted to compliment Shannah on her smile randomly, but she couldn't hear him, which made it worse. We were looking at the menu and he turns around and says to Shan, "You have a very beautiful smile that knocks the breathe out of me everytime I see it, so will you marry me?" Then he kneels down right in the middle of the resturant and pulls out a ring pop. It was so cute!

Just kidding. That's not entirely what he said, but it did sound like he was trying too hard.

I don't have time to post more, so ask Shan.

Overall, it was a pretty first date, as far as Stephen goes.

Keilee!! You gave me a heart attack with that whole ring pop thing! Only because I could totally see him doing that.

I would have randomly appeared at Baskin Robbins, but I didn't know exactly when you'd be there and I was kinda in pain from getting my blood drawn twice, a meningitis shot, and a gardasil shot.

Hey guys? Gardasil shots HURT!! I'm still in pain right now.

Keilee said...

Awww, I'm sorry Hillary. I'm trying to sympathize, but the last time I got shots was before kindergarten. I know, I'm bad, but still healthy!

Yen said...

Ooo.. sorry! At least now when you go to college, you won't have to get any more shots!

Dallin had to get a ton of shots when he went to Korea. It sounded painful.

Lol...why are YOU posting this, and not Shannah?

S Thorne said...

Because Shannah doesn't want to relive the pain. That's why. Second, it was very awkward. Very. Please sympathize and feel bad for me now.

Hillari said...

awww! I sympathize totally! (well, since I've never actually been on a date, I can only sympatize to a certain extent, but you get the gist.) ;)
