Let's Go Fly a Kite!

Zander has been very fascinated with kites for a while now. So when my friend, Andrea, told me about the Austin Kite Festival I was very excited to take him to see all the kites. There were all kinds, but Zander's favorite was the airplanes with the spinning tails. I personally enjoyed watching the big windsock type kites. The guys were having a hard time getting them to fly, but they were pretty cool anyway. The weather was not too bad. It was a little chilly when we first got there, but it was great after about an hour. Zander enjoyed looking at all the different kites. He also got his face painted for the very first time. He was surprisingly still for that! I wasn't sure he would like it, but I asked him and he said "Rat." (His word for Yeah.) He picked his painting, and was very adamant about having that fish! I asked if he wanted a frog or a lizard, and he said no to everything, he just kept saying, "Fish!" It turned out really cute! He got to jump in the inflatable jump house and I think his favorite part was the bus ride, also a first for him.


Funny, huh? Silly boy. We had a great time out together as a family. Little Mason slept most of the time, as you can see in the picture above.
