kite festival!

This is an old post, but in the effort to put up new pictures, here goes.

On May 10th we attended a kite festival on the lawn of the Museum of Science and Industry. It was so fun - even though it was freezing and not real spring weather. Dylan and Noah loved the kites and Dylan especially got so excited that we got to fly our very own kite (which she had gotten for her birthday). We were able to make our own kite (cheap paper thing that we ended up throwing away - she wasn't that into it by the time we did it - we were FREEZING). We visited a storybook bus where they got to go inside the world of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. And Jason got to play Mariokart Wii (and loved it so much we went out and bought the game later that day). But most of all, best of all, we FLEW KITES!!

Putting together the new birthday present kite. Dylan is staring in amazement at the sky filled with kites!

Dylan and Noah in front of the Museum of Science and Industry enjoying the kite festival. Still waiting for Jason to put the kite together. :)


Noah is so pleased with himself walking in the grass.


Jason and Dylan try to get the kite up. Repeatedly. It was really really windy.


It's up!!!!!!
