Good morning, you two. Hope you are feeling better today, Lori. Today's thread is a winner - everyone so looks forward to the Inaugural pictures of other Freepers! Thank you both for letting those of us who weren't there live vicariously through you!

Jen, not to worry! You either looked really great all by yourself or Mama Bear did a heck of a job retouching! :)

Re #61: You *two*? Okay, I really can count, but I started my post just to Lori and Amy and added Jen without changing my 'rithmetic. :)

Good Morning to the Finest and all the party-goers. The pics and comments are GRATE!

Hope you get to feeling much better Mama Bear. How about a nice margarita to soothe that queasy feeling? :)

Hi, Gabz - that is a cute picture! Would love to see the rest of your dress. Long? Short?

No pictures of the whole dress........but it is long, and is split up to mid-thigh in the front.

I admit to it being a recycle, I didn't buy a new dress this year. But I had only worn this one once before. 8 years ago next month, it's my wedding dress.

Funny thing about the dress is that over the years it changed color on my. The part of it you can see in the picture is the color it was when I bought it........but the rest of it, which is crushed velvet, was a forest green 8 years ago. It's now brown.

Great pics, beautiful job laying them all out cuz..

Awwwww........thanks, Rus.

I wish I could have made it..

Me too. But, as it turned out, it was probably better that you didn't come. How would you have gotten back home in that blizzard? You guys really got hit hard up there!

Good morning, phancy.

Yes, what devastating news about that chopper crash. It's the first thing I heard when I woke up this morning. My heart just breaks for the families.

FReezie ... Yes .. Marissa is a ham! :~)



Marissa was not impressed with having her picture taken with Jim ...
she sees him every week or so, but ...
She was very impressed with his cowboy hat!
I may be forced to get her another hat before our next rally.

I think it was after 1:00 when I took this picture and the child looks tired. :(

what a pleasure it was to meet you Thursday night!!!!!!!

Yes, it was a pleasure meeting you too! I almost missed you and would have been so upset had I left the Ball without getting to hug you. There were a couple others that I wanted to meet, and I know they were there but in the crowds I couldn't find them. :-(

I am not sure what you promised me about "pictures" either, LOL.......maybe that you would send me some? Or, maybe I promised you that I would send you some. I only had two drinks all evening, but, even so, everything is a blur.

If you want the full size photo that I took of you and JimRob, freepmail me your e-mail and I will send it. (Did you already give it to me? Yikes....I can't remember, LOL)

There were so many of them. It's never easy to take the death of a soldier, but when it's so many at once it seems especially tragic.

On a lighter note, I love the topic today on the Finest!
The Inauguration was great (if not a little bit COLD!).

Yes, it was cold and us wimpy California bears are not acclimated to cold weather. I think that is why I caught some kind of bug back there in DC. I got over-tired too and my resistance was probably down. :-(

Did you go to the Ball? If you did, I am so sorry I missed you....there were SO many people there!

I caught cold as well! And I'm used to the cold weather myself...we're getting used to it in Ohio.

I was at the Independence Ball at the convention center.
The President SPOKE TO ME! I am still on cloud 9!

Also got some great photos (sorry I don't know how to post them!).

Marissa is such a pretty little girl (I'm sure she's never heard that! LOL), and I've really enjoyed the pictures of all of you that Freezie has posted. The zoo, the tea - all great pictures!

Wonderful meeting you and your husband at the Ball, Jen. And am so glad he is now as full-fledged freeper.

You look gorgeous in your photos. I am sorry you can't see them. Yes, I posted your grand entrance into the ball in your freeping slippers. Sooooo cute! I will e-mail you all the photos that you and turbojet are in. Do you want them full-sized, or reduced?

I hope your mom gets better, and turbojet too. So many people are sick right now.....including me. I got a flu shot three weeks ago. This is just not fair. :-(

The president SPOKE TO YOU!!?? You lucky thing!

He had me fooled at first.........but then I realized he was far too short!!!

Yes, and when I got home and my husband saw the pictures he said that it was an amazing resemblance, but that Chuck Norris is a bit older than this impersonator. I think he is right about that.

Between Freezie, MamaBear and me, we have oodles of Marissa pictures. I may do a thread at Amy's Place titled Marissa's DC vacation. LOL

She had a ball except for standing in line for over 2 1/2 hours to miss the President!:(

After flying to DC and back she thinks she wants to drive the plane and give everyone something to eat and drink when she grows up.

We had a wonderful time even tho we did not get into the inauguration. That was a huge disappointment for all three of us.

Thank you, Diva. I am sorry you couldn't go too. FR knows how to throw a party, that's for sure! Plan on being there in '09, when I hope we will be celebrating another four years of Republican leadership in DC.
