Life is all about perspective. Having grown up in politics, I know it's an industry that, for all intents and purposes, is known for being dirty and cruel. And yet, despite it all (and I really mean it all) I feel so grateful and blessed for every single day and for the opportunities I've been given. I have an absolutely epic group of friends, wonderful parents I love and who love me in return, a brother who just returned safely from Iraq, and I have the honor of touring the greatest country in the world with a group of people I just can't get enough of. The list of blessings in my life could go on for days.

Why do I choose to be involved in politics right now?  Because my father is different.  He's compassionate, full of life, hilarious and is a beacon of integrity to myself and to so many others. Politics is rough, but I absolutely adore my Dad and this campaign and have never, ever stopped believing in him. It's just that simple.

It was so snowy this morning!

Sharing a moment with Shannon

Pulling into the dairy this morning

These people waited out in the snow for us!

There was a huge crowd inside as well

Patriotic cones!

Dad ordered a chocolate shake

The crowd taking pics

These people were so cool to come out for Mom and Dad

People were outside looking in

Miss Porstmouth is a supporter!

My new favorite button

Shannon and Jay

I only sleep on buses and planes

On the plane

Then playing around

Hanging out with the amazing Dante

Ok... so Mom and Dad's room had this really cool window

And we all started messing around

It seriously was so much fun

See!

Even Mom got into it (people don't see her silly side enough)

I love these girls so much

We improvised a bit of "Abbey Road"
