snapshots of hope

We had a fun time at the family "Barack The Vote" rally for Obama over the weekend.
The note attached to the "Voting Booth" sign says, "WATCH YOUR STEP"...indeed!

Me, soaking up the humidity and good vibe, with face paint from an earlier party...one side says HOPE & the other says OBAMA...gives new meaning to "turning the other cheek"!
kids registering other kids to vote.
On the ballot:
Will you agree to be a voter when you turn 18?

Digging for treasure - Obama buttons
Bakin' for Obama
middle school band, "Grounded" rocked the house...this was "Smells Like Teen Spirit"
The kids' parade at the end of the day
Messages of hope

Looks like you all had a great time! Nice to see kids involved learning about how to be engaged citizens.
