another 'what is it' question

You guys have been very helpfull with my fist question, maybe you can guess this tree(?) too that is growing in our backyard.
It is right now about 8 ft high, has very large oval leaves, I would say the size of a hand and it is blooming right now! The flowers are very big and all white. The flowers have a lemon kind smell. The bees are totally carzy about the flowers!
If I would know how to post a picture I could do that too...*blush*

It might be a young Catalpa tree. They are also known as bean trees because of the long seed pods. Here is a photo of mine.
