Life Inside A Bubble

Not much is more exciting to kids than spending time inside an inflatable bubble. The kids set up camp inside today with blankets, pillows and the Wii. I tried to make a smaller bubble this time but this house is so small that even a smaller size completely filled the room. Oh, well. I tried.

Also tried to make this one look like a baby whale but it flopped miserably, so it's just a regular bubble. Next time I attempt to make the whale I'm going to go ahead and spend the $10 to get the guy's pattern. Sure will make it a lot easier.
