Salty Zebra

  In 2008 my husband and I were heading to Disneyland for our 10th anniversary/ 2nd honeymoon. By now we had both been to Disneyland with one of our children each and we wondered if it would still be fun for us without kids. My Mom had the brilliant idea for us to take one of my youngest son's stuffed animals with us and use it as a photo prop. We had more fun taking pictures of that silly kitty all over Disneyland, and by the second day we had cast members saying to us, "Oh you're  the cat people!"  After that we were sure to take a buddy with us on trips.

 To:  Spy Team Leader  CC:   Mission Commander  From:   Agent C RE:   Mission Update Well, this update is going to be pretty short because we didn’t do anything I can show you today!   Your parents spent the morning packing and then the afternoon shopping for presents for you and your siblings.   When they finished shopping, they called you and then went for a walk along the water.   It was about sunset and the sky was beautiful with the cliffs and water.

To:   Spy Team Leader  CC:   Mission Commander From:   Agent C RE:   Mission Update Good Morning Spy Team Leader!   I hope that your time with Grandma Sheila is going well.   I have continued my communication with the local geckos.   I thought you might be impressed to see their camouflage capabilities.   This was a gecko that Mom found in the bathroom this morning.   It had changed color to match the night light it was sitting on. Pretty impressive, eh?   Today, Mom and Dad cleaned up the house and packed their things to move to the next place they will be staying. I thought you would like to see some pictures of both places.   The first pictures are of their house for the first week on Kauai… This is the front of the house   AS you ent...
