What a great once in a lifetime chance Josh had today to met President Bush and the First Lady. Josh attended a "meet and greet" today and was able to listen to President Bush speak and also got to shake his hand and speak with him for a few minutes. After his speech, he came down and greeted all 150+ people there and spoke with each of them personally for a few minutes. I wish I could have had a picture of Josh with the President but he got some good pictures and some of them show him very close....shaking hands with the person right next to Josh. The President also got all of the children that were there up front and had photographers from the White House take pictures. He then gave all the parents tickets...I assume to get copies of those pictures. I still do not regret not going. Most of the children there were a little older and it lasted a total of about 3 hours which I am sure my boys would have not enjoyed. So even though it would have been neat to be there, I am glad Josh went and is able to share the pictures with us. Maybe next time the boys will be a little older and we can met the next President!!!! Enjoy the pictures below.....

I still think it's soooo cool that a small town boy meets the President of the United States! What a memory to have. Someday Josh can tell his grandkids all kinds of stories! Wonder with all the travels you will do what could top this?
We are impressed. We never get to meet anyone. m & d
