Tax Day Tea Party

RIGHT WING EXTREMISTS UNITE!!!

Ha ha.(thanks Napalatano for the new title)
 The tea pary in Gilbert yesterday (April 15) was a hit!
Hundreds of people showed up to speak their minds about being overtaxed by an out of control wastefull government and MANY other frustrations!!

Denna Ray put on the event and did a great job!

Some of our elected officials (Farnsworth, Biggs) and our friends (Taylor and Norton)

My four wonderful kids and I went to the HUGE tea party at the state capitol that night and saw thousands of people just like us. 
It was very memorable and worthwhile! We heard some great speakers and had some great conversations in the car on the way and home and while we walked. We had fun snaking our way through the thick crowd all the way to the front so we could hear. 

The woman in the glasses sang the National Anthem and God Bless America.
She was VERY talented!

Me helping Bill Norton who talked about our Principles of Liberty Seminar we are putting on for those who would like to learn more about the Constitution and the founding of this great country!

Me (Abigail Adams) and my Constitution sign. Russ came too and took these pictures. It was great to have my best friend with me on this awesome day. 
Funny, usually April 15 is not considered AWESOME!


A quick video of the crowd and the excitement.
I brought my  camera to the State Capitol but couldn't find it till it was over!!!

Russ and I are hosting a seminar called 
The Principles of Liberty: 
28 Principles that have Changed the World
 taught by BILL NORTON
who is a member of the NCCS 
(National Center for Constitutional Studies)
The class is based around the book The 5,000 Year Leap that Ronald Regan wished every high school senior would be required to read and that Glenn Beck has been talking about a lot lately. 
The seminar is 25$ a person or $40 a couple.
It includes a free book and snacks or lunch!!
We are doing one on 4 consecutive Tues. evenings in June 7-9pm
or on Sat. July 18 (8am-4:30pm)
These will be held in the east valley and there is also one in the west valley on Sat. June 27. 
Let me know if you are interested.
You can leave a comment or email me directly at 

It will be an amazing class and a great opportunity to learn about why our country is so GREAT and so in need of our help at this time!!

I am also starting a new blog to keep people updated on these events and others
