Inauguration and MORE SNOW play!

We all gathered to watch this historic inauguration!!

 

What a wild time in history!

The Vance Family was absolutely adorable.  Only in America can someone start from such humble beginnings and have the opportunity to rise to such an incredible level.  

We love our country!! 

Powerful moment in the United States of America. 

So thankful for common sense coming back to America! 

 

The dance of the First Family at the Inaugural Ball was so elegant and lovely!!

 

And on to...MORE SNOW!!!

He is such a gentleman and a blessing to all those around him!!

He performed all of his manner scenarios so well!!
