What a Day for America and the World!!!!!

Well - today has been the most amazing day!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is Inauguration Day - January 20, 2009. As J is writing this blog for us (remember - we have no fingers to write with), we are all watching the Inauguration coverage. It is a very emotional time. Our hearts swell with pride and joy and anticipation. We think today is a day to celebrate what it is to be an American. J worked all day but stopped and took pictures of the coverage on her TV. Here are a couple pictures from her picture taking efforts. To get a better sense of what the past few days have been like, go to J's sister's blog ---- D has been in Washington, DC since Sunday and has just soaked up every possible moment.

What Were They Thinking????

OK - so I always thought that humans were smart..... WRONG! Our humans - T, J, C, R decided that it would be fun to go to Disneyland the day after Xmas. Boy, are we glad that pets aren't allowed! They arrived around 12:30 in the afternoon and got parking at the very farthest parking spot in the entire Disney complex. In fact, it was so far away the trams didn't even go there! Once they finally got inside the park, they realised that almost every person living and/or visiting Southern California was also there including the USC and Penn State football teams. That's right - it was Rose Bowl Media Day as well..... But despite the crowds, they all had loads of fun. They even got to ride on a couple all time Disney favorites - The Jungle Cruise (an homage to us - the 4 legged members of the family) and the Tiki Room - boy - I would have loved to have been in that room with all of those talking birds. I can watch birds FOREVER!! So - Happy New Year to one and all.... the 4 legged and 2 legged kind. Rosie and Angus
