Kitchen, Kites, and Kickin' Back

We've been having a busy January and early February! Daniel has been helping me in the kitchen more and more. We make muffins and cookies, macaroni and cheese, grilled cheese and quesadillas, and today we even made play-doh!

The other day I pulled out Daniel's new kite. It was a very windy day....maybe too windy! Well, not as windy as the previous day when Daniel and I had to dodge tumbleweeds on our walk with Walnut. But  there was enough wind that we got the kite in the air, then it yanked free of the string and blew up the hill. I got it, tied it back on, then it yanked free again. Nothing was broken and now everything is duct taped on. We'll try it again when we get a good windy day. Soon enough around here!

Richard likes to snuggle on the couch with Walnut and Daniel. Here they are reading a book. All my boys!
