If you rode by my house on one particular day (Friday, April 4th to be exact 😉), you would have seen me outside in my front yard blowing bubbles. Yes, you read that correctly! I was just as happy and content as I could be. I was enjoying the sunshine and smiling really big as I was blowing in the bubble wand and spinning around in a circle w...
