Living where we do, there is always plenty of wind for kite flying. Peter and Andrew had been begging to fly kites for a while and so I we decided that it would be a good idea for some family fun! We headed over to the church where there is a big open area, perfect for kite flying. A midst some grumbling about being thirsty and/or hungry we had a lot of fun that lasted about twenty minutes. YEAH!!
My poor deprived children really don't know how to fly a kite because the kites that they usually get to play with consist of Walmart plastic bag and some string. You usually have to run in order to achieve any kind of altitude.. so the idea of just standing with the kite and letting it get higher was beyond them. Their kites kept falling from the air because they would run the opposite of the way that they were suppose too.
Matthew spent some of the time snoozing away in our new double sided umbrella stroller...can i just say that I am in love! This baby turns so easily and fits through all the doors that I have tried. It's simple to fold up and its very compact and doesn't take up tons of room in my van...a plus when you have as much luggage as we do for a simple overnight.
