kite flying

yesterday was a little windy so i took the kids to the park so we could try out our new kite.  
(we have actually had it for awhile but the instructions of how to put the thing together looked hard)
the instructions also said the wind had to be blowing 7 mph...well how do you know how fast the wind is blowing?  lick your finger and stick it in the air and then you'll know?
well i did have to run to get the kite up, so i think it was blowing about 3.3 mph.
we really only got it going one time.
at least the boys had fun outside.

i couldn't take pictures of our flying kite and run with it.
maybe next time.
