It's just politics, baby

Regardless of who wins the election, this is going to be a very exciting and very memorable year. During our lifetime we will see either the first Black President or the first woman Vice President elected. That's pretty incredible. I think we are lucky to have two excellent candidates in the running. We just hope whoever wins will provide the leadership this country needs to turn our economy around and clean up the mess we're in right now.
Whichever candidate you are pulling for just get out there and vote!
Of course, I have a favorite and I'm using my baby to show support!
*Just a little disclaimer: I'm not trying to start a fight with Republicans. I will still be your friend if you support McCain/Palin. :) I'm not ignorant. I can definitely understand why someone would support his campaign. I am proud to live in a country where we have the freedom to make our own choices. I love to hear other points of view. I always learn something - whether it is about the topic or the person I'm discussing it with.

A Saturday Afternoon Together


Wow! We weren't sure we were ever going to get one of these again. Chris has been busy at work a lot these days so, we've been missing having him around. It was a beautiful day and the kids got a lot of play time outside at a friend's birthday party. Here are some pictures, of course.
This is Anna's friend, Connor. He is in her class at school. His Dad walks him to and from school just like us. Whenever he sees Anna he's got to stop and wait for her no matter how far ahead they are. If they are very far he'll actually walk back toward us so they can walk together. His Dad tells me that Anna has a fan club and doesn't even know it. They say he talks about her a lot at home. How cute!
