Congratulations, Mr. President

I am proud that I spent the final days of this campaign making phone calls to get out the vote for Barack Obama. And I'm proud that my home state, Ohio, pitched it's support behind him this time. YES WE CAN!!!

Boo, Buzz, Sully and Woody at the ward Trunk-or-Treat. Yup, all Pixar. And Britt hereby vows that this is the last year she dredges up matching costumes on eBay. Really. It's a promise.

Boo and Sully, Woody and Buzz--our trick-or-treaters! At each house, Emerson sang the following:
