My sweeties casting their votes! (In our makeshift booth, tee hee.) Fun story. I told the kids they could keep their vote a secret. Things took an interesting turn. Two votes for Romney and one for Obama. When I announced that Romney won 2 to 1 TK started crying. lol We have a secrect liberal among us!
