Let's Go Fly A Kite

Today we went to National Kite Day at the park. They had a lot of things to do. Annaln loved the bubbles...

...And the catapult!
The Boys liked the Build Your Own Rocket
 The best part was sending them into the air!
 

We got to meet Smokey the Bear.

He loved Boo.

Even though the wait for the pedal cars was an hour they were a BLAST!

Annalyn was a crazy driver!

Did I mention that...

...Boo LOVED Smokey the Bear!

Pop Pop's Turn

We had so much fun with the plane the other day that we decided to do it again and invite Gramie, Pop pop, and Sean's family to join us. We took an awning and chairs, along with the remote control plane, a water rocket, several kites and some KFC for lunch.

The kids were so funny running back and forth with their kites. They kept getting tangled because they wouldn't stay in one spot. Sean and Pop Pop brought their planes and Shermie brought his RC car. There was lots to do.

Joni pucked all over Gramie (which she said was "Uncle Sherman's fault. He mad me eat my mashed potatoes!" we all laughed at that). Sherman let Pop Pop fly his plane when his plane wouldn't work (fortunately for Pop pop's plane, it lives another day) I guess hr should start with a simulator). Despite the puking and including the plane crashes it was a wonderful day.
