Let's Go Fly a Kite, or A Boat Load of Pictures

Uncle Chuck and Aunt Lara came to celebrate REH's 7th birthday (and maybe they came to celebrate my birthday too?).  We spent all day outside playing.  They brought a whiffle ball set and a kite and the kids had a BLAST!  TJH especially enjoyed the kite; REH and SEH especially enjoyed the ball and bat.  Proof is in the enormous amount of pictures. (Remember you can click on them to enlarge and accept my apologies for the amount: I couldn't decide what to keep and what to reject).

Taking a picture of him taking a picture.

Fixing the kite string was a group effort.

And then Auntie and Uncle were absolutely wiped out from playing all day.  So were the kids, though.  I put them down for a "nap" at 6PM and they woke up at 8 for dinner and most of them went right back to bed.  

The Monday after (uh, yesterday...), TJH wanted to do nothing but go fly the kite again:

And he did a great job all by himself.

Keeping it low so Mom could get a picture with both the kid and the kite.

Talking about how much fun the kite is...

And then it all ended when it landed in the tree. :) No worries, though, I went out and got two more.  At $2 each, they are well worth it.
