Let's Go Fly A Kite!

We decorated kites at Zoe's birthday party back in November, and we finally tried to fly them a couple of weeks ago.  It didn't go so well.  There wasn't enough wind, and I guess you need a lot of room to run?  I kind of forget how to fly a kite, actually.  Ooops.  Needless to say, Gabe found the activity quite frustrating (sorry, buddy!).  Zach, on the other hand, had a blast simply running and dragging the kite around the backyard. 

"I did it, Mom!"

can you see Gabe's look of concentration?

I love this one - he seems so into it

string around the neck - eek!

pa-toot!
