Thanks for the photos, love them but, sadly, they don't add to my test results because I already have the 10 points for viewing your previous ones, lol.

54. Very lucky girls!
I'm short.

My parents were fairly tall for being of the Depression/World War Two generation.
Mom was about 5 foot 7 -- she always LOOMED over me.
Dad was about 5 foot 11 -- and about 200 lbs. A fairly big guy.

I had tall uncles and aunts on both sides.

I'm a smaller version of my mother, physically.

But I'm only five foot three....WEEP

55. They're lucky they'll never have to be self-conscious about being so tall
I'm 6'1" and a 54 year old white woman. I grew like Malia when I was 10 or 11 as well, reaching my full height at 14. But there was no Title IX, there was no celebrating the strength of woman--in fact, I was told over and over again not to show off and act stronger than the boys otherwise none of them would ever date me. Yeah, weird times.

It took me a long time, but I finally learned to love being tall. And Malia and Sasha have a great tall role model in Michelle. As well as the fact that the African American community has NEVER been as judgemental over a woman's size the way white people are! It warms my heart to see tall girls celebrated.

Now, maybe they'll finally start making clothes for us! You can get tall women's clothes if you're a size 14, good luck if you're a 4 or a 6!!!

Looks like she was more than a few steps ahead of the Secret Service. Thanks for the thread. I admit to being a hero worshiper.

16. How can one NOT look at those glorious photos? I've been waiting my whole life to see a
technicolor White House.
Not to look would seem odd to me; almost like a crime!

I mean....come on! :)

26. Please add more pictures from Burnham Park
I saw additional pictures on HuffPost from just before they get on Marine One, that has some spectacular views of the Chicago skyline in the background. The only one here so far shows a fuzzy Navy Pier in the background. Please please add them, please?

I do love Michelle's boots and coat! And that last, "Hey you!" photo with President Obama pointing at someone...haha!

The guard at the door has to stare straight ahead, but that pilot sure is a lookie lou isn't he?

56. No, here are the ones I saw
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/02/16/obama-family-returns-to-d_n_167325.html
There are a few at this link more besides these, but these are the ones I was talking about. I like those you just posted. Darkness falls on Chicago. Doesn't seem to be the same day though, since they left Chicago and arrived in Washington during the daytime.

Edited on Tue Feb-17-09 09:34 AM by Better Believe It
Here's some wonderful pictures of what President Obama had yesterday for breakfast!

Hope to follow-up with some photos of his afternoon snack.

President Obama eats food just like the rest of us!

Makes one proud to be Merican.



Yummy!!!

40. Actually, all sarcasm aside, that pic makes me really hungry this morning
thanks a lot, now I will have to blow my diet. And for those of us who can multitask and look at pic threads AND serious threads thank you Jackeens. These are some very nice pics. I really like Sasha's peace sign shirts. She is adorable.

42. NOOOOOOOO! please no.
Actually as a diabetic food is torture for me. Literally torture. When everyone else around you can have pies and cookies and ice cream and you get...sugar free versions. Some are not always all that good either. I can have tons of protein but there is only so much sausage and bacon and hamburgers a person wants, you know? I can hero worship and live vicariously through Prez Obama and his love for pie.
