Let's Go Fly a Kite

 5.23.2012

On a semi-nice/windy spring day, we all needed to get out of the house.  So we packed up a quick picnic and headed out to Nielson's Grove for the afternoon.  We had a great time!

Hallie and Eric running back from looking at the ducks to eat some lunch.

 

 These birds were all over the place, and weren't afraid to see if you were going to feed them.

 After having some lunch, we pulled out our kite.  There is a huge grassy area right in the middle of the park that is perfect for kite flying.  Hallie was so cute to watch.  She would just run her little legs with the kite trailing behind her.  It was darling.

 It's hard to see, but Eric is on the right in the black, and Hallie is towards the left.  It really it a big area, and Hallie ran back and forth at least a dozen times.  Which meant she had an excellent nap when we got home.

 I sat with Paige and took pictures, but I couldn't help but think of Mary Poppins, and sing "lets go fly a kite, up to the highest height!"  It also inspired me to go check out Mary Poppins for Hallie from the library.  She loved it!
