James Gale must be having the time of his life. This 11 year old won a contest to be on national TV during the Super Bowl and get a chance to meet his NFL hero, Wes Walker, a wide receiver for the New England Patriots. He also got a tour of the White House from First Lady Michelle Obama, who we see below in a funky, 80s-style blouse and royal blue pencil skirt. You know the 80s are back when the First Lady is sporting their style!

What a great way to end the State of the Union. Barack and Michelle called John Buchanan to inform him that his daughter Jessica, a missionary to Somalia, had been rescued from Somali bandits.
On a lighter-although certainly not as happy-note, we get a great look at the First Lady's amazing sapphire blueBarbara Tfank dress that she wore to the State of the Union, and she paired it with a pair of classy, strap-back black heels.
In a phone call from the U.S. Capitol immediately after the State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama informs John Buchanan that his daughter Jessica was rescued by U.S. Special Operations Forces in Somalia, Jan. 24, 2012.

A banquet was among the festivities that the First Couple was invited to as a part of President Obama’s receiving the Nobel Peace Prize. For the occassion, the First Lady picked a pale blue evening gown and matching jacket by designer Azzedine Alaïa. The gown has a relatively simple top with double straps on each shoulder and beading around the trim, but from there it gets interesting. There is a wide sequined band separating the top from the skirt, which is composed of alternating bands of sequins and pleated fabric. Mrs. Obama accented the outfit with satin pumps, and very modern, long, dangling earrings.
