| Sissy took the gold medal in bubble blowing |
Today I had big plans!
We headed to the park with toy bats, golf clubs, balls, our whole
collection of bubble wands, and a huge bottle of bubbles for the first annual
Bubble Olympics.
Events included popping
as many bubbles as you can with a bat, catching a bubble on your wand and
running a relay, and blowing more bubbles than your competitors.

| and swing! |
We settled down in a beautiful open field and
started the games. And then I noticed
them… huge black looming clouds. While
they offered lovely shade, the wind that accompanied the clouds made bubble
blowing nearly impossible. We valiantly
tried to continue, but mostly ended up covered in bubble juice. Let me tell you that it is very hard to blow
bubbles in the wind, keep an open container of bubbles away from twin boys, coach
a bubble event, and attempt to photograph the proceedings.

| Gold medal for best beard |
After a few more stubborn moments, I was
forced to admit defeat. I packed up the
toys and kids and headed back to the car.

| Gold medal for best lip sync |
So to celebrate our loss, we decided to take Daddy to
lunch!
The moral of the story is, sometimes you have to embrace the unexpected!
Oh, and we will revisit Bubble Olympics one day and it will
be epic!
Happy Summer!
