Suds in the Bucket

On the rare occasion we don't have something planned - no one to see, no where to be - sometimes we have to get a little creative with our fun. This was the case one sunny afternoon.

Grandma and Grandpa Dudding stepped in with a few tricks up their sleeves...

BUBBLES. Of course.

It started with Grandpa showing Marcus some of the biggest bubbles we've ever seen.
Albeit a bit too windy for the bubbles to actually take flight, the bubble contraption was pretty clever.

We then moved along to a bubble making gun.
This thing was awesome. Marcus and I fought to use it took turns using it.
The machine obviously blew smaller bubbles, but it also blew big bubbles with little bubbles inside the big bubbles. I'd be lying if I said it didn't kind of blow my mind a little bit. They were the coolest things to see.
After the bubble solution was all used up (we went through one huge jug AND three small bottles of bubble solution), Grandma tried making a Pinterest bubble concoction. Supposedly, this solution was supposed to make bubbles that were "stronger" than the normal bubbles.
What we really ended up with was a bucket full of suds, or, as I told Marcus, millions of tiny bubbles!
This face spells trouble...

BAM!
Sudsy fun for everyone!
