It's a Small World...

The Disney Wonder was in yesterday and I had a few transfers with Disney groups, meaning there were a bunch of kids on my coach. I don’t know what came over me, but I decided to re-write the words of “It’s a Small World” to be about Juneau. The end product was this:

It’s a world of fun, that is free from cares

Where you’ll see bald eagles and maybe bears

You’re in Juneau, my friends

Where the fun never ends,

It’s a small world after all

I then yelled “everybody!” and we all sang the chorus together. Haha. I’m such a Disney dork. Last week when Disney was in we played quote time where I would talk about Alaska and Juneau, but when people got bored they’d holler “quote time!” and I’d give the kids a Disney quote that they would then have to guess which Disney movie it was from. The kids loved it. By the end they were just asking for more and more quotes and didn’t care two sticks about what they were seeing. I was actually really impressed with how good these kids were…I was giving some obscure quotes! I gave the following:

“See the hat??? I’m MRS. NESBIT! Bahahahaaa!!!”

A little 5-year-old in the front seat shouted out, “Buzz Lightyear! It’s Toy Story!” I was so impressed. That is by no means an obvious Toy Story quote. It tickled my heart and I know Bri would have been proud.

I got asked to stand in for the Sacrament meeting pianist today at church (thanks for those lessons mom and dad…I’m really grateful for them!) and then asked to speak in a few weeks as well. Phew! It’s been a while since I’ve spoken in church, but I’m excited.

Not much to report or tell as far as funny stories go, life just keeps plugging on. But it’s so exquisite. Life is just so exquisite.
