Wonderfully Windy

Last weekend brought insane winds to our house, which on any normal day is no good. But Mommy just happened to have a super-mommy moment and had purchased a kite a few days earlier, which worked out perfectly with the warm, windy weather. This was RoRo's first kite experience, and the first in a long time for both Shawn and I....it proved hilarious and quite a workout for Shawn and I (having to run from the dive-bombs Roanin kept orchestrating).Right away, Roanin was not a fan of spectating...so we let him have the controls and he did great. I couldn't believe he could control it and was so into it. ps...check out Tuesday the cat trying to get in on the string action.




This last shot is of Shawn after he had to run about a quarter of a mile chasing the kite into the neighbor's pasture after Roanin finally let go of it. I can't believe it didn't happen earlier...but when it did -- it was hilarious. Shawn tried so hard to catch it. Went through some trees, over a fence and dodged several horses. What a Daddy!
