Let's go fly a kite!


Sunshine and a slight breeze made for a great afternoon of kite-flying.




Caroline attempts to fly a kite like brother and sister.


She decides flower-picking is much more fun.


Nathan tries his hand at photography and captures a moment with Caroline and Christine.



With a "little help" Brian begins building Nathan's Star Wars kite.


The children are ready to go home before Brian is finished.  So we pack up the car and head for home. 


The Star Wars X-Wing Fighter is finished!


Nathan is ready to launch the X-Wing on its maiden voyage.


Father and Son are equally excited to see it fly.

That is quite the kite! Looks like fun. Maybe when it stops snowing we can try our hand at kite flying here.

Looks like a fun day! That's quite a kite Nathan had. Spring is the best time of year! Thanks for the muffin recipe, too.

Where did you find the kite? We have been searching with no success!

What a perfect day to fly a kite. You looked so happy running to get your kites up high. My favorite picture, though, is the one of the three kiddies walking hand-in-hand back to the car. What a great memory!

What sweet pictures! I especially enjoyed the ones of you and Caroline, and the three kids. Such a wonderful family you've been given!
