2010 Kite Festival

Today was a wonderful, long, crazy day

We left the house at 10 AM

Went down to UC to the

Kids in the Kitchen

Be Healthy. Be Active. Event

~The boys

ran obstacle courses

made potato heads out of veggies

planted seeds

Guessed what different fruits and vegetables were

blindfolded

(Ben knew them all)

did other various arts and crafts

danced

tumbled

ran

Then we went to the

Kite Festival

where Ben insisted on bringing his kite

and it was fantastic!

He flew it all by himself

for over and hour

and Tommy had a blast running around

Ben's Shark Kite

which he really wanted to fly by the

Scuba Diver kite...

but couldn't as it was flying in the professional area

Flying kites are pure bliss...


Tommy playing around with Ben,
Ben, keeps his eye on the kite...
I love it!



Then, we went to IKEA
(can't go up in that direction and not go...)
and
got
home
at
9:00 PM

Tommy was crashed

when Tommy is bigger
