While we wait for the bell to ring on this school year, here's some virtual sunshine from the past week.

The cast of Friends (finally) reunited!

It's The One Where the Friends Reunite, and from the looks of the trailer, it's going to be good.

For the record, we're with Matt LeBlanc on the question of whether or not Ross and Rachel were on a break.

And this Disney cast member received a special recognition

Before he worked at Pinocchio's Village Haus at the Magic Kingdom, Alex was an aviator in the U.S. Navy for 21 years. Recently, Alex — Disney call sign "Geppetto" — was honored by the Magic Kingdom with an early-morning flag raising.

"I'm just glad to be here," said Alex.

There's a new royal baby on the way...

Princess Beatrice, daughter of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, is expecting her first child with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzo this fall.

Their baby will continue a veritable royal baby boom that includes August, who was born to Princess Eugenie in February; Lucas, third child of her cousin Zara Tindall, born in March; and the second child of her cousin Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, due this summer.

... and a sixth baby on the way for Morgan and Bode Miller!

Three years after the tragic drowning of their 19-month old daughter, Emmy, Morgan and Bode Miller are joyfully expecting their sixth child.

The couple are already parents to Nash, 6, Easton, 2, and twins Asher and Aksel, 18 months. Bode Miller is also dad to daughter Dace, 13, and son Nate, 8, from previous relationships.

"We both just knew that we had more space in our hearts to give more love," Morgan told People magazine.
