Let's go fly a kite

Ever since we rented the original "Mary Poppins", the boys have been fascinated with the idea of flying a kite. Leave it to mom to find a couple of kites for a dollar each, and with Pirates and Cars on them no less. So, with a decent day, and a little breeze, we headed out to try out their new adventure.

To get the full effect, you have to imagine Patrick and Owen singing as they run with their kites "Let's go fly a kite....up to the highest heights....let's go fly a kite and send it soaring...."

First they had to get the idea of running with the kite...into the wind preferably!

Owen caught on quick too...

Then it was time to let the string out, start way across the green space, and really get a run at it. Owen got it really soaring.

And Patrick quickly followed suit....

And a few more pics, including a cruise in the Power Wheels Jeep, on the Picasa site.
