I bought this dress at the Red Tag Store here in town this past weekend during their 90% off sale. I love it when I get to go to work feeling like I work in the glamorous fashion industry instead of in the bore-me-to-tears world of IT.

The kids had no school today. So, Kevin took Jordyn to Meijer to buy a goldfish with some of her babysitting money. She named the fish Dorothy.

**Update - Dorothy died within 24 hours and had to be returned to the store**

Spring Cleaning has been in full swing at the Hillary house. Unprompted, Liam went to the toy room to collect some toys to be purged (sold at the garage sale). With Liam, it's less about simplification and organzation and more about garage sale profit.

I love my boys with long hair. My boys, however, do not love long hair. Liam actually craves a buzz cut. Today I caved and let Kevin take Liam to Rooster's (there's no place else my boys would rather get their hair cut). Not a buzz cut, but pretty close. Good thing he's got those gorgeous eyes and lashes.

Owen is a very sick boy. He has bronchitis, and the medicine is wearing him completely out. Poor little guy. I guess when you're sick, this is the blanket to curl up with.

Today was parent-teacher conferences at Jordyn's school. She's doing well in all of her classes except for math, which, even though it's not her strongest subject, I don't blame her poor grade on her, I blame it on her poor teacher. Her other teachers had GREAT things to say about her. Language Arts, Ms. Colagross said that Jordyn was very mature. Social Studies, Mr. Cisneros said that she would be very successful one day. And Choir, Mrs. Flynn said that Jordyn was "genuinely, authentically precious." Awww. Jordyn had told us to look for her self portrait on these tiles to see if we could pick her out with out looking at the name tags. Yep. :)

Jordyn had a mini choir concert tonight. It was a dress rehearsal for the choral festival they will be attending on March 16. I just had to get a shot of my gorgeous girl before going to the concert (my photos taken AT the concerts never turn out well!) They performed their two songs beautifully. I'm sure they will do well at their competition. Afterwards, the family went out for dessert at Red Knapp's. Jordyn got the cream puff...it was DELICIOUS!
