Go fly a kite...

12 Aug 2012
















We went to the beach this afternoon so the kids could fly a kite. They were so excited when they actually managed to get it up in the air.

We walked back through some pretty park gardens. I love all the wild flowers that have been planted there, so many gorgeous colours together. Archie attempted to continue with his kite flying... running around the park with it.  Needless to say it was all pretty tangled by the time we left.

    Just wondered if you could tell me where you got your matchboxes from? I want some plain ones to have a faff with! Did you just have one size or were there large ones too? Sorry to pester you on here but every time I email you it gets pinged back! Hope you are all ok :) Nick x
