Inauguration Day.
The girls and I cheered and clapped and I cried happy tears. What a momentous day!
The pictures aren't great but they are "in the moment"! I grabbed a couple of the TV and then a couple of LYX and MQ watching Obama taking the oath of office. I have a shot of Obama, face front, but it has Cheney in the back and even on his way out I couldn't bear to put his face on my blog!
I couldn't help but be reminded of old Mr. Potter from "It's a Wonderful Life" when I saw Dick Cheney in his wheelchair.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo, the girls are watching so intently. Em is just too young to care, I tried to explain to her what was happening but she was mad I made her stop playing to watch.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had someone here to watch it with me. My dh had to be at work, and my youngest watched it in school. I cried my happy tears too!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't watch it and I'm still at work tonight so didn't even get to watch the news. MAybe I'll see something later...
