And the answer is...

The doorbell rang tonight while Rylan was at the Jazz/Celtics game. I answered the door and all that was there were three balloons with the letters Y-E-S written on them, anchored to the ground with candy bars.

The other side of the balloons said L-I-Z, so Rylan is committed to go to prom now... no backing out. He's already been fitted for his tux.

By the way, the Celtics won by 3 in overtime. Rylan came home with three autographs on his hat and jersey. He was a happy boy!
