It's been pretty windy the past couple of days so the kids and their cousins dragged out the kites for some kite flying in the yard.

But it took some help from Fino to get a couple of the kites detangled and flight-ready.

I doubt there's a parent out there that doesn't know what a drag this job is.

After all that work Fino decided he needed a turn as well.

And as I was downloading these pictures I couldn't get this song out of my head so I thought I'd share it in the spirit of a windy weekend in Maine.

Let's go fly a Kite

The girls have always really liked that song and were especially pleased when their dance teacher chose it for a recital number this past year. It turned out to be one of their favorite routines of all time.
