{Well Behaved People Rarely Make History}

If you have talked to Ryan and I for longer than 5 minutes, you know how we feel about politics. On Wed. April the 15th, all over the nation Tea (Taxed Enough Already) Parties were held to voice to the government how out of line they are!

We, among thousands, came to support the rally!




This is the crude sign we made in 5 minutes on the way to the Rally that was held at the State Capitol.

Ryan put Alenna on his shoulders and she held the sign proud.

They walked through the crowds that way too!


"Obama's Change Does Not Make Cents"
I am posting alot of the signs I liked.

Alot of these people really invested some time/thought into these signs!



There were alot of kids!

We felt silly for dragging our kids, but they just fit right in!

Everyone was so nice! Ryan and I really had good time!!



"Party Like It's 1773" With Tea Bags Attached to the sign.




There were alot of these signs. I like them.
Mind you, this wasn't an anti-Obama rally. Even though there are lots of anti-Obama signs.
It was a "stop spending our money!" rally.

Liberal or Conservative, I think America has had it!


It was really cool to seen Ryan and Alenna in the crowd of protesters!

Aw, proud moment!

I hope our children always stand up for right, and don't just go along with whatever.



"Pelosi can't stimulate my package."

Enough Said!


There were so many people!

Probably around 4 or 5 thousand! I just wish we could've been in Wa marching on the Capitol!
And even with such huge numbers, everything was very calm.

That's what you get when you gather conservatives opposed to liberals though.




"The Solution To Our Problems Isn't Government, The Problem Is Government!"



It was all too much for Brady...


"Change=Fascism...Who Knew?"





This is us leaving.

Everyone thought Alenna was adorable, which ya know, she is.

We taught her to say, "It's Not My Job!" Which she said a billion times there and made everyone laugh.

We finished with ice cream.

What a fun night!

I have to say this is absolutely brilliant and I'm so sad I couldn't go! LOL at the obama/cents poster, that's totally my friend Brittney carrying that sign. She rocks.

That's so my 2nd cousin holding the "Obama's Change Does Not Make Cents" and the "NOPE" sign! I'm mad I couldn't go to the party! I would have rocked a sign too!
