KGHS Prom 2017

Did I mention that Jason is in love with Abby and refers to her as his girlfriend?

 My baby boy Garrett headed off to prom last night with his gorgeous girlfriend Abby Elia.  What a handsome young man! I cannot believe that he will be 17 in just a couple of weeks!  *mind blown*
The prom is for juniors and seniors at KGHS.  Garrett and Abby started their afternoon with lots of pictures, then met up with friends Markal/Rachel and Kyle/Morgan for dinner.  I am proud to announce that they took my suggestion of going to the Sedona Tap House, a new-ish steakhouse in downtown Fredericksburg.  The place is slammed every night of the week, so Abby made reservations for the group a couple of weeks ago.  Then it was off to the prom being held at the Old Silk Mill near Caroline Street.  The mill was built in 1889 and was literally a silk mill for years.  It's part of the property of the Wakefield Inn which was once the 3rd largest hotel on the east coast.  Apparently it was quite the spot to stop for families who traveled from Maine to Florida on Rt. 1 for vacation.  

 The KGHS prom committee arranged an after prom party at SkyZone indoor trampoline park for 11 PM - 3 AM but Garrett and friends declined.  Instead, they headed back to Chris's house for a bonfire and general shenanigans.
