Let's go fly a kite!

As hurricane Matthew was approaching, the boys decided they needed kites.  Grandpa Harvey ordered them, but needless to say, the hurricane winds were a bit too strong for kite flying.  Then we got busy or there was no wind when we did have time, and time passed without kite flying. Thankfully, today we had both. 
Jared reminded dad to download Mary Poppins to his phone so we could all sing "Let's Go Fly a Kite" on our way to the park. Today was Amber's first time flying kites and it had been a long time for the rest of us.  It was the perfect day; with 5 to 10 mile an hour winds.  The kites looked so beautiful with all their bright colors decorating the sky as they flew in the wind. We stayed out for about an hour until the wind died down.  It's these simple pleasures we so often forget to do, that stay in their memories long after.
