My favorite event of spring!

Kite Flying! I love it! And I think I may have recruited a couple other adventurers!  While Michael was flying his kite, he pretended he was announcing the kite flying competition, and what do you know... he won!  Adelyn loved it too!

We got it higher and higher until we ran out of string!

Definitely my favorite souvenir from San Francisco!  I was somewhat saddened when we had a runaway kite episode.  Joey wanted to fly it, but the higher it gets, the harder it pulls, and it pulled right out of his hands.  It flew on its own, all the way across the highway and landed on a neighbors roof.  I was able to tug in the string from one side, but the roof was too rough and it wouldn't budge.  So I went to the backyard, and threw the kite into the air as high as I could.  It took off, but I didn't have time to run around to the front and grab the handle, so off it went again.  After some detective work, we found it in the back of a different neighbors yard, and finally ended up just cutting the string, because it was draped over a couple people's roofs.  At least I got my kite back!

And everyone needs a little entertainment.  If it's not kites, maybe ginger snaps is your thing!
