Celebrate This Week: A Commemorative Tin!

Join us each weekend for Celebrate This Week with Ruth Ayres. 

                                                         When we pause to celebrate, we find the joy.

A week filled with moments to celebrate and remember.

Today I'm celebrating . . .

Finding a use for this little box

I received it when I was lucky enough to visit the West Wing of the White House during our recent  trip to the east coast.  A tour of the West Wing?  Yes, Sara's sister-in-law, Anne, is married to Andrew Coy, former executive director of Digital Harbor Foundation, and now Senior Advisor for Making at the White House.  He gave us an evening tour of the West Wing and showed us the room where he had met with Kid Science Advisors two days before.  President Obama made a visit to the meeting and invited the students to step across the hall and visit the oval office.  We weren't allowed to take any pics inside the White House, but here we are outside,

and here we are in the Press Room, 

and here's my pic of the White House 

taken from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building
where Andrew works.

And my use for the Commemorative White House
