Brilliant!

Summer boredom. Julianne contracted it yesterday. After recommending HGTV, reading a new book or calling a friend as an antidote to said boredom and being turned down, I started suggesting vacuuming, laundry, and cleaning bathrooms. I still don't fully understand why she turned those down? I mean, seriously....could there be anything more fun than scrubbing toilets?
And then I had a brilliant idea. Brilliant, I tell you! (Of course, I didn't realize just how brilliant it was until after it kept Julianne boredom free for quite a few hours.) What is this incredibly brilliant idea? I introduced Julianne to Picasa. Here are some of the results:
I'll categorize the idea as downright genius if Picasa proves to be the antidote to summer boredom more than just this once.

Fun. I really like the one of Lilian. Is that like some pencil effect?

Oh, and my kids don't go for the scrubbing toilets and baseboards as an "I'm bored" solution either. Heaven knows I've tried...
