Exciting! Brandon and I received credentials to go to Invesco Field on Thursday to see Barack Obama accept the Democratic nomination for candidate of president of the US of A.
Luckily, we live in a great spot, so we'll be able to avoid traffic by walking a little less than 2 miles to Invesco Field that day. Our neighborhood is really close to downtown Denver, where most of the DNC events are taking place. Just two blocks from our place, MSNBC has this huge two-story stage they built practically overnight.
We just drove home from the mall, and after we got off the interstate we saw 4 groups of cops from the Interstate to our apartment, which is probably less than a mile stretch. It kind of felt eerie seeing so many police cars, but Brandon reminded me that we are kind of in the heart of everything, and that it's great that the city's being proactive with the security so early on.
Looking forward to Thursday, when we'll head to Invesco Field with over 75,000 other people to see the acceptance speech. I can't believe we'll be a part of such a great moment in history.

How exciting Nicki! I watched his announcement of Biden as VP the other night on TV and am really excited about both of them. I bet Denver is totally abuzz with all of the Dem hoopla. Hope you enjoy the acceptance speech!
