This afternoon it started getting pretty windy. The kids where playing outside and I decided that it would be fun to fly a kite with them. After searching the garage (even under the stairs-I got real nasty-) and coming up empty handed, Tommy let us borrow his big, fancy, pirate boat kite (seriously, it's huge and fancy). We tried it for a while, but because we where flying the kite around the house, huge drafts from off the house made the kite go funky and it was smashing into the ground more than flying. So being the crafty, inventive mother I am (pure sarcasm) we built a home made kite out of a Walmart bag, two sticks Liam gave me, some yarn that my Grammy let us have, and an awesome pink pencil. Please hold you applause for my ingeniousness until after you have seen the pictures...thank you.
Liam running with the homemade kite -Look at that air!!!-
Liam dug with this handy kitchen spoon while Emma took her turn.
Emma's turn!
Look at that kite...what kid wouldn't LOVE to have a Walmart bag kite? (Patent pending)
Emma showing me her dirty hands and her hair whipping in the wind.
Dang he's a cute kid.
Applause may commence.
