I Think I'll Blow a Bubble

 "We're raking the leaves, right kids?"

 I saw another blogger post about giving her kids a few packs of gum with real sugar and then stepped back and watched what was to happen.

 Some of the kids are expert bubble blowers....

 Others, as seen in the background of this photo, are not.

 But he tried,

 and tried.

 Some folks with orthodontia tried to fool the photographer and blew up a balloon.

 He got it!!

 I didn't say he was an expert yet!

And the winner of the first annual bubble gum blowing contest is Kimberly!!

It's Raining Gumballs!
It's raining gumballs!
It's raining gumballs!
It's quite a wonderous treat.
They're falling from
the clouds above
and bouncing off the street.

It's raining gumballs!
It's raining gumballs!
A sticky, spectacular shower.
I try to catch them
in my mouth
for hour upon hour.

It's raining gumballs!
It's raining gumballs!
I'm not sure of the reason,
But I'm glad instead of
just the four,
we've now got gumball season!
