at last!

so yesterday was what our family called "Obama day" and it was wonderful! I could feel the excitement of the nation & world thru the TV... what a vibe! i was at work but Chris was home with the kids watching the history unfold. here is a little video of how brainwashed Mayden is :o) her hand on her forehead is her saluting, which Chris claims that she picked up on her own. [NOTE: nevermind the random act of violence Cameron dishes out at the end... he's a bit of a bully, but we're working on him]






my favorite part of the whole day was when the Obamas' got out of their armored car and proudly walked up Pennsylvania Avenue to their new home. it was awe-inspiring to see them out among the people. unafraid. i think it made a strong statement... but my 2nd favorite part was when he got back in that car safely!




while i do think 10 Inaugural Balls is very excessive (especially in this economic climate) this was the perfect way to end the night..... beautiful!
