And the tradition continues...
Nathan and I started a tradition years ago that I have come to love. It is no secret that I love politics...and I {love} elections. I love to step in that booth and cast my vote. I feel so patriotic, it makes me teary thinking of all the men and women throughout history who have made sacrifices so I could have the right to vote. Our tradition is simple, but (if I do say so myself) awesome. The evening of election day is spent watching the results roll in and when we can't take anymore (because even though I love politics, I can only take too much of the talking heads) we take a break from that to watch My Fellow Americans. If you have never seen this movie you are missing out. It is an oldey but a goody....Jack Lemon, James Garner and Dan Aykroyd in a work of comedic genius. So many fantastic one-liners. Oh, and I almost forgot an important piece of our tradition. We make muddy buddies as our movie snack...because of all the mud-slinging that goes on before an election - get it MUDDY buddies...MUD slinging. HA HA HA
