At 10:00 we inaugurated our new president. Mrs.
Catanese’s class came and Mrs. Torrey came. |
After the Inauguration we went to Mrs. Torrey’s room to
watch the real Inauguration. We saw Barack Obama and the Secret
Service. After lunch we watched Barack Obama do his speech. We saw a
person singing America. After the speech they blew the cannons. We saw
two million people watching. We saw Mrs. Obama and the kids.
Then we had a toast.
Then we had the Ball. We danced to jazz music. Some of
us dressed up in fancy dresses and clip-on ties, and Ethan wore a
tuxedo. We had punch and cookies. The best cookie there was chocolate
chip. We did the side-step dance. |
