Obama, Picture's and Other Things

While I was blog hopping I found this: It is from this blog - My Soap Opera Life

On another blog I saw this (sorry I don't remember which one)

Rain & Obama and...

I'm finally in a blogging mood, but not to blog about.Since my last post Barak Obama became president of USA. What a day, I had to work but I tivo'd it, and enjoyed watching it. I admit that I was unsure of him, but I did appreciate the historic aspect of the day. And I really liked his inauguration speech, I just hope that he does what he says he will do and I also liked the fact that he is very much a cheerleader of sorts to get the people involved. I wish him well and am looking forward to seeing what the next 4 years brings.Last Sat. was Rain's birthday party in London. He turned 5 earlier in the month. We had a real nice day. Brittany and Ryan were good hosts, and Rain had a great time. The weather was nice for driving. After the party my mom, and sister, Owen and I went to Kelsey's for lunch. I had a great day. Unfortunately Gavin was sick and they couldn't go out to lunch with us.

I saw "Mall Cop" tonight, and I thought it was very funny. I enjoyed it a lot. I don't think there were any swear words in it, a bit of minor violence but overall a good enjoyable movie.

History Was Made On Tuesday Night


Barack Obama is the president elect. I watched his victory speech and I must say it was pretty good, I teared up a couple of times, it was the emotion of it all. A news reporter said it was one of those "where were you when" moments. The other two being the assignation of John Kennedy (I was 7 years old, so I don't have an answer for that one) and 911 ( driving to work when I first heard about it, but was at work when I realized the full impact of what happened ) and tonight when it was announced that Obama won I was at home. I am not sure if I would of voted for him but hopefully he will be the president that the country really needs right now.

I also watched McCain's concession speech at it was also very good and gracious.
