This is for the animal lovers in the family...yeah, lots of you, I know: (it's absolutely amazing, by the way)

Disneyland Visitors!

We had 3 sets of families come to stay with us in the last 3 weeks on their way to Disneyland. First, my old roommate, Debbie Rex and her family came from Salt Lake with their 5 kids. Then Matt and Lindsay came with cuties Lance and Luke, and finally my brother, Paul and his wife Heather and 2 kiddos came for a few days. My dad says he's gonna make us a sign to hang on the front porch that says "Disneyland Hotel!" We don't mind...really! It's been a blast.

The Jasmine is in bloom, here in Southern California, and on a warm breezy day like yesterday, I walked around the neighborhood just breathing deeply and taking it all in. It was then that I realized...If I see a cloud that I think is cool, I can take a photo on my phone and send it to Mark immediately. If Louis says something cute, I can record it on my phone and send it to whoever I want immediately. There's no way to capture a smell and send it around for all of my loved ones to enjoy, which is exactly what I wanted to do. It might not be long...you never know in this crazy world where we can SIT IN CHAIRS IN THE SKY!
