Linsey confesses, "When Parker asked me he was cute, nervous and very polite so of course I said YES!"

Who was Lindsey Vonn's dance date this weekend? High School sophomore Peter McDonald, 16, is a student at the Vail Ski and Snowboard Academy and he decided to ask the Olympic gold medalist to his homecoming dance.

McDonald told The Vail Daily he "whipped out the question" because "she's awesome!"

She's awesome indeed - the beautiful blonde athlete told the young man yes and they posted the photo above on social network Facebook.

Vonn wrote on Facebook:

“Yesterday I visited the Vail Ski and Snowboard Academy and while I was eating lunch with all the students a 15 year old boy named Parker asked me if I would be his date for their homecoming dance which is tonight. When Parker asked me he was cute, nervous and very polite so of course I said YES!”

Vonn, 27, is training in Vail this weekend with the U.S. Ski Team.
