Kite Festival

We enjoyed the local Kite Festival last year for the first time and knew that we'd be back this year for sure. It was a much warmer day than last year (low 70s) but not quite as windy. Regardless, it was a great day for being outside and the festival was, again, a great event. 

16 flags were flown in honor of the man who has been the announcer at the festival for the past 16 years who passed away this year. Beautiful.

The kids creating their own "wind:"

He had the most success standing still with this length of string out. I failed at getting a video but you can see the joy on his face. Love it.




It was hard to get pics of Willow because she was on the move running from one end of the field to the other practically the whole time. I think Nana will sleep well tonight!




They had us help unfurl the flag, like last year. It is beautiful and the kids love going under it!




A prompted hug this year, though unprompted last year.

You gotta love getting free shirts (x2), free umbrellas (x4), and free icecream (x3)!!
