Let's Go Fly a Kite

Tuesday it was extremely windy here. Marty had the idea for us to buy some kites. We got dinner and had a little (windy) picnic and then tried to fly the kite. Notice I said tried. Marty and I had a blast trying to fly the kite. It was just too windy, we would get it up and then the wind would either change direction or a huge gust would come and mess it up.
The kids on the other hand were only interested for about the first 3 or 4 tries. They did enjoy running and chasing the kite after it fell on the ground. But then they just wanted to play on the playground (which is pretty cool-it looks like a big pirate ship).
The one thing that both Abbie and Molly were interested in was a stick in the middle of the field:) For some random reason there was a stick in the middle of the field and our kids were more interested in that then flying the kite:) We will have to try again sometime soon to fly the kites!
