New President!!

WOW! The 44th president of the united states! President Barack Hussein Obama! Although I have my hesitations about certain things that Democrats believe in, it sounds like President Obama has a lot of new and fresh ideas. I hope he follows through with all his proposed ideas!

Today the kiddos and I had the inauguration on all day to watch the many festivities that went on! It amazed me that within two minutes of Barack reciting back words put forth by Chief Justice John Roberts he no longer was Barack or Obama as he had been referred to for months, he is now the President of the United States of America! Enjoy your day Mr. President, because you have a lot of work ahead of you!!

The following are just a few excerpts from President Obama's speech that I have and will ponder on! "Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America — they will be met. On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord. On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics." "America, in the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations."

These pictures were created using a program that imitated President Obama's Change poster. Thought it was fun!
