Magic at the castle

So, I just got back from vacation and as you can see it was magical. Though that looks like a postcard, that is actually an Angel Art Original. What a truly amazing time. Riding Dumbo the flying Elephant with Zachary, my three year old son. Not only riding, but giving him the up vertical controls... I never thought you could get sick on Dumbo... it is plausible though. Flying over London with Peter Pan, floating through our small world (with that ANNOYING song playing). Dancing and singing breaking out spontaneously as though I'm in the middle of a real life musical. Go carts driven by 6 year olds, runaway miner trains, mountains that splash and multiple space adventures. All ending with the pièce de résistance... the magnum opus... the fireworks to end all fireworks. Skillfully timed, beautifully executed, tinkerbell flying out of the castle. Well, look at the picture again... you get the idea.

And you may think... that's an amazing vacation... OH, but it ends not there my friends...

the beach boys

That's right... the Beach! Right on the beach... hearing it every morning when I woke. On the beach by 8am... scouring the miles of sand for shells. Watching two little boys get their first taste of salt water... sour looks and all. Floating in waves, squinting at sun, making tie dyed t-shirts... ALL memories that can never be taken from me.

I wish you all... beautiful HOLIDAY with your loved ones... may they burn deep into your souls for eternity.

Somethings Amis

So, I just finished watching Ratatouille, and realized that I must have some type of emotional imbalance going on. I cried at the rats story, and the lives of rats and people intertwining... IT"S A CARTOON!

I'm glad I'm going on vacation on Saturday... I think I need it.
