Go Fly a Kite!

This weekend we decided it was time to try something new. The wind was up, the air was warm (fairly) and Dora was itchin' to take flight. So we headed over to Lola's Grandpa and Grandpa's house to try our hand at Kite Flyin.'

Madisyn (with a bit of help) got Dora off the ground in no time.

Everything seemed to being going fairly well....

...until Madisyn started to get a little freaked out about how high Dora was getting, and how she was "flying away."

So we reeled her back in.

But that was only after Grandma Dax was nice enough to watch Lola and Madisyn well Dad and Paul contined flying the kites.


Its pretty safe to say the Dads had more fun with the kites than the kids did.

Then the real fun began....

Paul (the novice) engaging in Operation Kite Rescue - Code named Flyin' Flounder.

Lola wondering what her Papa is doing with the tree trimmer.

Success. Mission Completed. And we only had to cut down 3/4 of the tree. JK.

Whoever knew $1.99 bought so much fun! Thanks Grandpa and Grandma.....err.....I mean the easter bunny!
