Houseguests, Disney, etc.

I've been too busy to blog. Here's what's been going on.

I had houseguests in town for about a week. It was Mom plus a niece and nephew. We went to Disney World a couple days and that was very cool. My favs at DW: Space Mountain, Test Track, Soarin', Mickey's PhilharMagic. Also, love the Fast Pass option. If I had been smart, I would have begun each day by running around and getting fast passes for all the things I wanted to see/do. Ah well, maybe next time.

I also had two family events going on: my 40th birthday and my granddaughter's "baptism." (As a Baptist, I consider the ritual more of a dedication ceremony, but whatever. I think it's one of those things that good people of faith don't always agree on.) Both events went swimmingly. :)

Now all my houseguests are gone, and the house is much quieter. But at least now maybe I can get some work done. We'll see.

I'll try to post more pictures later, but here are a few of my favorites:

Mickey ears in the power lines as you approach the park:

The crocodile topiary:

How cool is that?

And one not from Disney. This is a lizard the kids found in the backyard. We have tons of lizards around the house. I just don't usually let them inside the patio where the cat can get to them.

Hope everyone is having a good mid-to-late August. :)
