Yesterday was a great day. We walked down to the Mall and hung out with many friendly and happy strangers. There was a lot of singing and some tears. It's a great time to be in the city and emotions are running high...in a good way.
Later in the day Grant and I attended the All Souls Ball and had a blast. We have so much fun dancing, singing and celebrating with our friends and church community. A wonderful night! Here are some pictures from our day...
It was really nice of him to pose with us at Union Station. He *is* the people's president.
We've stopped in for some coffee and treats at the Willard Hotel. The hotel is decorated beautifully. I've seen at least 5 fur coats while sitting here...that bums me out. A humorous thing about one of the fur coat wearers...she smelled like moth balls.
Here is where it will all take place on Tuesday. We're currently driving around looking at all the decoration and set up. I think mum is having a good time taking in all the excitement.
