"TODAY SHOW" in WILLIAMSBURG VIRGINIA

Today, I was in COLONIAL WILLIAMSBURG waiting for AL ROKER and MATT LAUER at 5:30a.m. Along with my fellow REALTORS® of LIZ MOORE and ASSOCIATES, signs in tow with coffee and donuts, we waited patiently for our moment of fame on the TODAY SHOW!! I woke up at 4:30a.m. so I could have enough time to put my face on...just in case I got a closeup:o)

UPDATE: HERE'S MY PICTURE...LOOK HOW HAPPY I AM AT 5:30 IN THE MORNING!!

The crowd was great. We had so much fun!! Folks with voting signs, lots of students from William & Mary (with "mom please send money signs!"), teachers, children, a guy with a "looking for a wife" sign and everyone in between. I hope you've enjoyed the pictures as we enjoyed being there!! Now, on to my nap!

My wife and I took the kids to NYC a few years ago and after the show Katie came outside and mingled with the crowd. We got some great pictures with her. We love this show and appreciated the time they spent being gracious.........

Hi Yvette! The show is still on and I've been looking for you! Right now Al is no longer in his wig and he's tasting some ale and there is a table spread with a bunch of yummy stuff.

I'm glad you had fun....loved your pictures! HAVE A GREAT DAY!
