Desperate Times Call For Desperate Measures!

We got hit with more snow this week - ugh! Naturally, we've been feeling a bit desperate for warm weather. So, with snow mountains still lurking in our backyard, I may have jumped the gun a little the other day by buying a bubble gun! When I brought it home, Elizabeth had no idea what it was, just that it looked TOTALLY fun, and she wanted to rip it open right away. Since the weather didn't permit us to actually enjoy it outside, we decided to bust it out in our kitchen. Morg is really good at cleaning floors....so the soapy residue mess was just a minor, temporary annoyance - and well worth the fun! So yeah, the bubble gun turned out to be REALLY budget, and more effort and mess than it would be to just blow bubbles the old fashioned way with a wand, so instead Elizabeth uses the gun as a pretend hair dryer. That works too.... Here are some photos of us pretending we are in our backyard blowing bubbles - sun on our faces, grass between our toes, dogs barking (yeah we'll take anything at this point).....
