Let's go fly a kite....

Every spring Costco sells some seriously fabulous looking kites. I have been suckered into purchasing two....however what they don't tell you is that you need hurricane type winds to be able to get them up in the air. Soooo I ventured off to find the cheapo $2 kites that will actually fly with normal winds. Yesterday evening we took them to my parents' (where up the street I used to fly my kite as a little girl) and successfully flew strawberry shortcake and transformers.....or I should say Papa and Great grandpa flew them....the kids LOVED it and we lived happily every after.
