"I better start saving my money because I told her we would go all out for the senior prom next year as if this one didn't cost me an arm and a leg already."
This reminds me of my youngest son, his SR. prom time came around and he called me at work and said he wanted a RED tux for prom, I laughed at him said OK if you can find one. HA HA he did and it cost me over $400 to rent !!! He wanted to make a statement and thats just what he did. He was the talk of the prom and parents, not in a mean way. He is very tall and slender and if anyone could pull that off he could. He alo wore patent leather sneakers and a black top hat with red grossgain ribbon!!! His date wore a beautiful black and white dress and with the red flowers they actually looked quite sharp. I never dreamed I would have spent over $400 for a one night tux rental but I coudnt back out once I told him I would go with it. I miss prom times !!!
