Last week we had a tip that President Obama was going to be in Leesburg for a conference. When I took the boys out in the morning I noticed police cars at every intersection surrounding our neighborhood and it was then I realized he was going to fly into Leesburg Airport and what his route would be to the conference center. We were at home about to have lunch and when we heard the helicopters and I threw the boys in the car!! Ben was in PJs, of course, and I forgot my shoes. And my camera. And Ben had to take a leak, which he did while parked next to some pretty important guys.
I did manage to capture a few fun pictures and video with my point and shoot, however!!
We waited a big and saw the motorcade come through while we were barricaded in the Walgreens parking lot. After the procession was over two men peeked their heads in the car and offered each of the boys a special pin - it was then I realized they were the secret service!!! We had a great time and its a memory the boys will never forget!!
