Let's Go Fly a Kite...

We are in full spring break swing, and today with gusty winds, the kiddos got the perfect idea to go fly kites...

And I have to admit, I did try to 'redirect'...
We did some art
We did some chalk
We (meaning the kids part of we) even made some pseudo kites for the front yard (plastic bags tied to string)...

And I finally gave in and loaded up the troops (even took Bailey with us... how's that for above and beyond? Does that redeem me for trying to put off the kite flying for so long?!) for a walk to the school yard for some afternoon kite flying...


and on the way, daddy happened to be driving by on his way home, and jumped in on the fun :)






...admit it, now you have the song stuck in your head, too!
