Presidential Inauguration

Yesterday, while watching the Presidential Inauguration, it occured to me how monumental January 20, 2009 would be in history. I wanted to make sure that I took a few photos of Zachary during the moments that President Obama was being sworn in. I did this so he can look back on these photos - and whether he realized it or not (probably not!) - he was witnessing history. We watched the coverage of the Inauguration events and it was all very exciting. Although our country is in a difficult place right now, I believe that everyone is looking forward to change - and I hope we all work together to achieve that. It will not be easy - It will most likey be hard for everyone - but we are the United States of America and if anyone can do it, we can. I pray that God gives wisdom to our leaders and that President Obama allows himself to listen to what God is speaking. We are one nation - Under God.

He's such a happy boy!

Zachary and I couldn't believe the crowds!

This is Zachary's face while I'm explaining everything that is happening :) Listening so intently.


Such an important day in history...

Watching our new President speak.

Always remember that you were a part of this day in history, baby boy :)

Zachary is thinking ~ "I want to be President" :)

What a great way to remember the important events in his life. Zachary will thank you one day for all this! Good job Mommy! :)

I LOVE this Baby! Gigi

That is a great idea, I wish I had thought of taking a picture of Henry on Inauguration Day! We did take a picture of him when we went to vote... hope to get together soon!
