Payton attended a school "dance" on Friday evening that was just like school dances we remember except that they required them to all wear the same t-shirt, all had to wear jeans or denim skirt, most parents stayed, there were silent auctions and a build-a-bear station. Ok, I'm being sarcastic and may be the only parent who thinks it was absurd to call it a "dance" instead of a school festival. The kids were really looking forward to having their first dance but I don't think it should have been sold that way to them. Nonetheless, here's a picture of Payton and her friend Kristen before heading out to the "dance."
