Hooray Inauguration Day

Just a short post in celebration of Inauguration Day! I decided to stay home and flip through the various channels to watch, but I did go out to the Lincoln Memorial Concert on Sunday and attempted to get tickets for a concert on Monday - the huge crowds beat me to it, but still met some wonderful people in town for the weekend events.

Check out my pictures - some are a bit blurry, due to my excitement, taking pictures with my niece on my back and not to mention the cold :o)

Trying to get closer to the Lincoln Memorial


Super long lines heading towards the memorial


We settled for a spot under a monitor - we weren't too far away...



Taking pictures of the monitors :o)

Sheryl Crow


Will.i.am - It's a New Day :o)



Bono



Jaime Fox



Our New VP

People were up in the trees
Usher, Shakira and Stevie Wonder
Hooray - Obama! Of course the crowd went wild :o)


Beyonce, John Fogerty and others closing...

Despite the cold and the crowds the concert was a wonderful experience.
