Yesterday I had the priviledge of hearing Barack Obama speak in Abington, PA, which is not far from where we live. My friend, Kristy, and I decided that it was too awesome an opportunity to pass up so we braved the long lines with our two preschoolers. Dominic was in school, so he missed out this time, but I hope to include him next time.

Obama is a phenomenal speaker. I have been stressed out about the state of our economy and the direction America has been headed in, and I left the speech feeling inspired and hopeful about the future of our nation. My favorite part was near the end of the speech, when he talked about being our brother's and sister's keeper and how we would get through this crisis together as Americans. You can hear that part of the speech here at my youtube account.

Here are some pics from the day. Enjoy! And please tell everyone you know to register to vote and to remember to vote! Even if you're voting for that other guy, it's important that all Americans go out and make their voices heard this Election Day!
