Mitt Romney

We attended Mitt Romney's "Faith in America" speech this morning at the Bush Library. I thought it was excellent, but I'm not sure how it will affect his campaign if at all. Read the transcript online. I didn't bring a camera, but Patrick sent me the ones he took with his cell phone. If we had been sitting 2 rows closer to the front, we would have had the opportunity to shake his hand. Oh well.
Look how close we were. I should have just jumped up there and shook his hand. :(
Here he is hugging some of the religious leaders that were there.
The usher tried to make us move over by the wall so people that came AFTER us could sit in our seats. Brock said no way, we got here first, we're not moving. The guy said I know, but we need to make room for people, and Brock said, I'll be happy to stand up while they walk around me. Then he left us alone, and what do you know, the row managed to fill up without us moving.

seeing Brock with his hair like that reminds me of the time we shaved our heads together...I haven't done it again since.

Way to tell him Brock!! I am glad you guys didn't move seats. Sounds like it would have been a cool speech to be at.

Congrats on graduation, Brock. I'm sure that it feels good to be done...now I get to go back for a while myself...jealous?
