Kite Frustration

Why is it that the wind completely dies when you get the kites out?

Don’t let the kid’s hair fool you. There. Was. No. Wind.

This Kid LOVES Bread

Ethan really picks at his food.  It’s impossible to get him to eat a real meal.  But he really loves bread.

Ethan said he was done with dinner tonight, and after a few more bites of his pasta, we said he could leave the table.  Once we were all finished and sitting in the living room, we noticed Ethan had disappeared.  We went back into the kitchen, and this is what we found.

Bread Man

The kid had gone and gotten several pieces of bread off the counter, stacked it on his plate, and was stuffing his face!

Decorating the Tree

Last night, the kids decorated Mom and Dad’s tree.

The tree now has ornaments, but only on the bottom third!

Festival of the Horse Parade

Friday night was our town’s annual “Festival of the Horse” parade.  Emma and Ethan’s school had several floats in the parade, and they were supposed to be dressed up as princesses and knights in shining armor.  Ethan wore his “Peter Pan” outfit because it was the only costume we had for him, but Emma (of course) had a princess gown.

And Aunt Paulie, Uncle Ben, and Cousin Mason arrived just in time for Paulie and Mason to jump onto the float as the parade was starting.

On the Playground

We tried to go to one of the local orchards today, but we didn’t get there until after they’d closed.  So, we went to one of the elementary schools and played on the playground.

Ethan did his impression of the Six Million Dollar Boy.

Emma’s hair got a lot of static electricity from the slides.
