Let’s Go Fly a Kite
Work has been pretty tough lately, which has left me in a pretty sour mood. The weather has been pretty bad here as well, which hasn’t helped. Years ago I bought a cheap Elmo kite at Target, but we never got a chance to use it. Ben found it again earlier this week, and has constantly been asking to go fly it. I’ve told him that the weather was bad, or it was too late.
But today was a gorgeous, breezy day, so Dave took Ben to the parking lot by our house which had a nice field next to it. The kite flew nice and high, and I was surprised how well it worked considering the fact that I only spent fifty cents on it. We even let Ben hold on to the kite, and he took the job very seriously. It was some nice outdoor family time, just what I needed after the last couple weeks!
Here’s a couple pictures of our adventure.









Yay! Fun! I can still remember flying a kite so high, it disappeared into the sky…
So cute.
I took my mom to see Mary Poppins a couple weeks ago and just recently got the song Lets Go Fly a Kite out of my head… and now it’s back again… *sigh* hehehe.
Great pics! =)
I was wondering what picture was on the kite , it kind of looked like a watermelon, until you said it was an elmo kite. I can definitely see it now. That kite was sold at a great value, even elmo gives it a thumbs up.
What a Cute child flying kite. Most fun having time is childhood.
