"I think it's so cool when..."

Christian used a "star" theme to ask Jessica to prom. Starburst candy were thrown all over her floor. We purchased star balloons, star signs and wrote star sayings on them. Then on specific stars he wrote "will" "you" "go" "to" "p" "r" "o" "m" "with" "me"all on different stars. The whole room was so festive and fun. It made me wish that I had been asked that way too. But we just didn't do that when I was growing up (or was it cause I was in Germany...?)

We had a team of helpers trying to put up all the decorations in a short period of time. Teagan, Alex (Jessica's brother), Ana (Jessica's mom), me and Christian. Jessica went to work that day (she works for her dad at the same company Jens works) and was expecting to get off around 5. Jens knew that he would have to work late and I asked him to ask her for a ride home giving us more time to decorate. She patiently waited for him to finish work.

She would never guess it was Christian who was asking her so we had to give her a little help. He put glow in the dark stars above her bed to spell out his name...so when the anguish of trying to figure it out consumed her to tiredness, she would calapse from exhaustion on her bed (and turn out the lights)...she would see who her suitor was.

We were all anxiously awaiting Jessica to go up to her room to find the decorated delishiousness. Towards the end of the night Jessica's mom said "J, would you go up to your room and get the ACT book and return it to Christian". So she did and we all ran up behind her to catch her reaction.

Here is Jessica's answer back to Christian:

It was a wonderful scavenger hunt! (I went along to take pictures hehe)

Clue #1

In case you can't read where the "hint" says I'll type that part.

Hint: Go to the place that happened.

Of course I didn't know where this happened (and apparently he didn't know either, but don't tell Jessica that...) we have a little forest behind our house which he searched for a little bit but couldn't find anything there, so he decided to go in the front of the house and voile'!

Clue #2

Hint: Where did that happen?

Clue #3

was easy...Footprinter Park

Hint: Where did the witch live?

Clue #4

"Purple park" across from our house

Hint: Go to where I told you that.

Clue # 5

Jessica told Jensen where the next clue would be. Jens wasn't home at the time so we had to wait for him to return and for him to take us to the spot. We drove all over Provo to get to the spot.

The whole week before this Jessica would tell Christian (trying to hint) several times as they were driving past this bridge..."I love it when I see messages on the bridge" or "I read those messages every time, don't you?" or "Isn't it sooo cool when people leave messages on the bridge"

It IS sooo cool, J.
