Let's Go Fly A Kite!

Yesterday it snowed.

No joke. We woke up to snow, with both Audra and Claire scratching their heads and asking, "Why is it snowing in the summertime?"

That's how we roll here in Colorado.

Then today it was back in the upper 70's. It's crazy.

We decided to take a bike ride to a nearby park. Claire said we should bring a kite, so we did.

There wasn't any wind- because, hey, why should we have wind the day after snow rolls in?

The girls didn't mind. They decided to make their own wind by running. Awesome! The girls have fun AND completely wear themselves out!

These pictures are from my IPhone so they aren't very good. But, you can see that the girls had some fun.




Here's some video of Camille giving it a shot:

It's times like this- running around with the kids, going on bike rides, flying kites- that life seems pretty perfect. Of course it isn't. This excursion ended with yet another tantrum and then we came home to a messy house and laundry to fold. But, I'll take these "Perfect Moments"- when things just feel good and right. We have a good life- a messy, sometimes grumpy, absolutely imperfect perfect- life. And it felt good today.
