I have a confession to make.... I have been in the worst mood lately! I think it's a mixture of stress, and lack of sleep, and maybe (just maybe) a certain time of the month. But it really stinks when you know you are in a bad mood, and there's really not much you can do to snap out of it. It is definitely not fun for me, and I know it's not too fun for the rest of the family either.
So on Sunday, I went to run some errands to get out of the house for a bit, and I drove by a family doing something that I haven't done in such a long time. It struck me that it was exactly what I needed to do! And I thought there couldn't be a better way to cheer up the rest of the family as well!
I drove straight to Toys R Us and got us a couple of kites to fly! It was even more fun than I expected!
Todd's neice Jordan was here with us, and even though she's a teenager now, she even enjoyed it!
Logan loves spending time with her!
Hayden and Nama loved watching the kite fly!
Although we got the first one up with ease, the second kite wasn't so user friendly. Here is Logan cracking up at their failed attempts to fly it.
And they kept trying.....
And trying....
And trying.....
And even Hayden got in on it!!
But much to Todd's dismay, they never were able to get it to fly. So instead, we focused on the one kite that actually did work, and of course the great family time we got to spend together!!
Don't know who these little boys were, but once Hayden saw them trying to fly "her" kite, she was determined to finally fly it herself!!!
It really was a great afternoon!
