While we, as teenagers, were busy duck and diving our parents, grandparents - and quite frankly anyone who didn't agree with us at least 100% of the time - we forgot that this kinda adorbs thing could happen. 19-year-old Austin Dennison took his 89-year-old great-grandmother as his date to the prom. Aww!

It wasn't out of a lack of options, though; Austin, who lives in Ohio, took it upon himself to invite great-grandmother Dolores after learning that she had never made it to her own high school prom. They even wore matching outfits! Well... kinda. Grandma Dolores wore a sparkly blue ensemble, which Austin matched with a blue tie and handkerchief. She also reportedly wore a pearl necklace that her great-grandson bought for her for the occassion.

"I asked grandma if she would be my date to the prom and she said she would be honoured. I told her it would be my privilege."

Aaah our hearts can't take anymore! Watch the video of Austin serendading his great-grandmother with 'Iris' by the Goo Goo Dolls followed by a slow dance.
