Something New

       This is something new.  Something I've never done, and never thought I would ever do.  I used to think blogging was weird.  But then I started to see all these people keeping a sort of journal (blog) and you could see all the fun things they were doing, and pictures.  You could also see what they were going through and read a little more about what is happening in their lives without having to call and pry.  I've been going through something and I thought to myself, maybe this is something I should try.  I should try to keep a blog (journal) to keep tabs on the things that my family and I do.  That way I can always have a way to remember the things we do, big or small, and go back and see that; one day to be able to show it to my kids and they can see all the great things from when they were little.  I also think it would be good for me to have this as an outlet.  An outlet to write down my feelings and things I'm going through without having to clog up facebook with a ridiculously long post about my troubles.  It doesn't matter if anyone ever reads this.  I will read it, and hopefully gain strength and insight through my experiences and trials that will get me through something in the future, and also my progeny.  I only hope that this will serve the purpose I am hoping, and that I can try to get better at it.  This blog thing is a little more complicated than I had originally thought.  I am still trying to figure out how to put  it all together, but I am working on it.
       I love the name that I picked for this blog.  Anyone who knows me can tell you what a HUGE fan of Disney I am.  All things Disney.  I just love the music, the movies, the Theme Park.  I have every animated feature film Disney have ever put out, and also all the Pixar movies  I enjoy watching those with my kids, and feeling that magic from when I was young, and seeing them enjoy it as much as I used to, maybe even more.  Anyone who knows my husband, Matthew, will know that he is a HUGE fan of Japanese Anime.  Not all of it mind you, because some of it is really questionable.  But he does love certain things, and he has enjoyed sharing that with our boys.  If you really want to know the truth, we are able to combine our 2 loves.  Thank you Studio Ghibli for your wonderful films!  Owned by Disney, and yet it's a beautiful and clean version of Anime.  My favorite is Howls Moving Castle.  Matthew likes several of them, so I don't know that he has a favorite, but I know that Michael LOVES Howls Moving Castle.  Thank you Emylee Montano for introducing it to me.  I love the message that is shared in the movie, something that every woman should feel about herself.  But, I won't spoil it just yet, in case you want to watch it. :)  I am in the process of reading the book it is based on, so I will probably put up a post about it when I'm done.  I'm not sure.  I'm still so new to this I don't know what I might end up doing.
       Life is so full of surprises.  And it only gets better as you get older.  It definitely gets harder as well, but it's all worth it.  The ride makes it exciting, and getting to a destination helps me feel a sense of accomplishment, and excitement yet again for another journey to take place, leaving that next destination and going towards another one.  May the journey be ever full of happiness and joy.
