Where the wind blows..... Tuesday



So Tuesday we spent the morning looking for a kite. One stop was at Macey's in Orem. Grandma was there, and we were hungry, so we decided she should take her lunch break with us.
We then found our way to the perfect field to fly our kites. Austin was the first to jump out.....RIP! His kite tore a way from the string! "Funny, it doesn't seem to be that windy.... cheap kite!!" Then Taylor jumps out and the wind catches his kite.......SNAP!!! His kite stick breaks in half! Jake didn't dare get out of the car in fear that the wind would carry him away. I jumped out thinking..... let mom show you how.... wrong! The wind was so strong, needless to say our kite flying day was over in 1 min and 36 seconds. We got home, Taylor and Austin love jumping on the tramp in the wind with their blankets I guess it's the sense of flying for them... I don't know. I wasn't even out of the car yet..... but there they were on the tramp and laughing like no other.... Then it happened..... out of the corner of my eye I saw a blanket fly off the tramp... A sheer wind came through and blew Austin right off the tramp! I called out to see if he was ok.... all I got was..."mom, did you see that, the wind blew me off.... that was so cool!!" Followed by alot of laughing and screaming!

I'll have to post the pictures of our kite flying experience... total frustration!! Lots of wind, but no flying kites.
Next time I'll try the trampoline and blanket duo. x0x0x
