Luke's Freshman HOCO!

I mean, I'm just so proud of Luke. He has really embraced being in high school! He never even talked to a girl on the phone, or dropped by their house 4 weeks ago. Now, he is going to Brooke's house to ask her to HOCO?!?! It is all so sweet, surreal, and special. We are lucky to watch you grow up, Luke.

Inspired by Brooke's favorite movie...I had a date Friday night at Michael's to get all the supplies for Luke's first HOCO proposal! How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days themed!

Luke on the phone with one of his gal pals, checking on his plan to see what they think.

It's a go!

This is the end result! Great job, Luke!

Luke and EJ headed over to Brooke's house to ask Brooke and Ally to HOCO. The girls said YES!

Listen in to Luke asking Brooke!

Brooke's parents invited Luke and EJ to stay for a homecooked dinner! Boys, you are so brave.

Suit shopping! I was stressing over this because I have NEVER bought a suit before for HOCO. And truth be told, neither has Ben. Ben always wore like Dockers and a suit jacket so I had no idea how this would go. After some convincing, Luke came with me and it was a wonderful one stop shop with Adam (the sales rep) who was the best! Luke got his suit, tie, white collar shirt, and a pair of dress socks with the pants tailored to tall Luke, and whole suit pressed, before we left his store.

Driving Lukey to his buddies and I'm off for drinks with the girls! Loving Friday night lights!
