Tax Day Tea Party~ What a Day!

Today I went to the Tax Day Tea Party at Liberty Memorial in Kansas City, Mo. I went to the Missouri Location instead of Kansas because my buddy, Dee from Conservatism With Heart was speaking there. It was thrilling to be there first of all, and also to see Dee do such a great job of speaking to around 4-5,000 people! (Most of these pics were taken by my friend Denise, the ones where there aren't credits are from my cruddy cell phone camera).

This is a picture of the crowd as it was growing. It was a sea of people!


This is my friend Dee Vantuyl speaking at the event. It was one of the best speeches. You have to give it a listen. She also has it on her blog which I linked above.



My friends Tom and Denise came. This is Tom holding my sign up for me!



This is the liberty memorial wall behind the stage and as you can see people were lined up on top of the wall! (Picture courtesy of Denise, Tom's wife.)



What can I say about this sign? I loved it! (Picture courtesy of Denise)



My friend Dee speaking. They had the crowd far away from the podium, so I couldn't get close enough for a good picture. She is the white mass in the middle! ;0)



This is Dee and I after the party! (Picture courtesy of Denise)




I love this sign. (Picture courtesy of Denise)

Great pics!



I really loved this guy! He is a vet and I told him thanks!



Here is the back of his shirt.

We had a great time. It was inspiring and the speakers were great. Of course my favorites were Dee Vantuyl, a 17 year old home schooled boy who blew me away with his FIRST TIME speech, and Chris Stigall.
