Hooray!

well folks, looks like the Lovebirds sent to Meet Me at Mike's finally made it! i was reading through my usual list of blogs and there they were! in the picture, sitting on a park bench with other softies!...just to let you know, most of the softies made for the Softies for Mirabel cause will be auctioned off on the 27th of July on EBay. that means go bid for something! i know i will!

another exciting news (well, for some)...Hillary Clinton came to She-town today! (and ended up being almost an hour late for her own speech!) it seemed like everyone was out and about: several store owners closed their shops to attend the event, students and teachers from the local elementary school came, college kids, infants, dogs, and even a parrot (yes, the one i photographed in March). i took little C with me to the political hoopla and he totally got into it, well, the part where he got to see dogs and other kids. i was able to take some photographs, but couldn't get close enough because the stroller was too big to maneuver through the maze of bodies...sorry.

his parents are for Obama

the lonely Ron Paul supporter

i think it's safe to say that maybe the number of people who supported Obama outnumbered the ones who were there for Clinton

you can see more pictures that i took here. i do have to apologize again for not having better shots. being short wasn't my choice...all i could see was Clinton's forehead and up when the signs weren't blocking it!

anyway, because of all the excitement, little C didn't take his nap until four in the afternoon (his regular napping time is at 12:30!), and i had to work at the restaurant tonight...needless to say i'm feeling pretty exhausted. if it doesn't rain tomorrow we'll be going to Alexandria. i was commissioned to take some pictures of the trails and the historical bits of the town, so i'm really stoked. (how about that?!?) i'm crossing my fingers that the meteorologists predicted wrong. lets hope!
