Burrr!

So the weather has kinda sucked lately, (I think it's sucked for everyone in the west but I don't really know thou as we don't watch TV, yet alone the news.)
But Since it's been cold I've been locking myself inside away from the burr and wind and cold and having to wear a coat- ness'. I've gradually become bored, so I started organizing pictures and came across the fun day we had just a few weeks ago (when the weather was great and warm and I looovvveeed it!)

Dave had the great idea to go fly kites, We had never done it with our kids yet and I was concerned about actually finding kites at the store. So we went to good ol' wallyworld, and Dave being a guy went off on his own looking for the kites while I decided to ask an employee. So I asked this lady and she was like
"ohh ya we definitely don't have any kites yet, we don't get those till later in the summer" (make sure and add the authoritative tone of 'I know this for a fact')
-bummer I was thinking.
So I went off to find Dave who was only an isle over, and there he was standing in front of about 50 kites or so.

We picked up a barbie (princess in Brynley's terms) one, and of course a robots (transformers) one for Payton. At a buck a piece I thought that was pretty sweet. Since I've never bought kites before I thought they'd be more pricey.

The wind wasn't too strong but strong enough and would kinda come in waves.
Brynley loved it at first but than she got to where she had this look on her face "like wow, that was fun now why am I holding this string up in the air still- this is boring."

Payton had lots of fun until the wind would stop and his kite would fall- than he'd get frustrated with it, he kept wanting his to be highers than Brynleys of course and than he started acting like the robot on his kite was attacking everyone, especially barbie.


I was of course during all of this rolling on the ground trying to get some shots of the kite in the pic with the kid. I'm sure the people watching us thought I was crazy- but it was a lot of fun, and I so can't wait for it to be warm, so we can go and do it again....
*Did you hear weather -I SO CAN'T WAIT FOR IT TO BE WARM AGAIN, IF YOU DON'T MIND, PLEASE, THANK YOU, YOUR GREAT, WE LOVE YOU, PPPLLLEEAASSEEE!
