Michelle Obama at the Inauguration

Michelle Obama showed her style, smiles and sense of humor during the inauguration of her husband at the 44th president of the United States.

During ceremonies inaugurating Barack Obama as the 44th president of the United States, Michelle Obama and her daughters had warm smiles for President George Bush.

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama bow during the ending prayer recited by House of Representatives Chaplin Daniel Coughlin in Statutory Hall at the U.S. Capitol.

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama walk down Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House on Inauguration Day. If they are cold, they don't show it, maybe because the sparkling yellow-gold sheath dress, by Cuban-born American designer Isabel Toledo, had a matching coat.

President Barack Obama, with first lady Michelle Obama and daughters Sasha and Malia walk from the White House to the reviewing stand for the inaugural parade.

Daughter Shasha seems to get a kick out of her mom's reaction during the inaugural parade.

She is a confidant and friend.

Designer Jason Wu, 26, got a boost when Obama wore his single-shoulder gown to the inaugural balls. He later earned an emerging designer nomination from the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

They danced....

....and smiled.....

smiled some more.....

And looked happy and very much in love.
