Tea Party Celebration!


Recently, Monty has been attending the 9/12 group for Lane County. They are group that follows Glenn Beck's 9 principles and 12 values campaign. He has enjoyed meeting other people who share his ideals and thoughts on government. On tax day they sponsored a Tea Party in downtown Eugene at the former Federal Building. It was quite successful with over a thousand people in attendance. The boys scouts had the opportunity to sell hot dogs as a fundraiser and also perform the flag ceremony. The boys had fun and the troop earned a good chunk of money. We played the National Anthem for the event (right after the Pledge of Allegiance) and thought it would be fun to play the recording of our daughter Kim singing. It was a gorgeous sunny afternoon and (I know I'm probably bragging, but...) her voice sounded so beautiful as it played over the loud speakers. After much head scratching, I learned how to include a copy for your listening pleasure. Have a great day...and may God bless America!
