kite break

chris scored at christmas, two cool kites (i spent hours and hours researching these two and they were both awesome!) we spent today cleaning the house from top to bottom, serious spring cleaning (in winter) and there is still a ton left to do tomorrow. we took a family break to try out the kites, the bigger one will be heading to the beach, needs more wind than the park offers.

lizzie went off to make fairy houses, i love how she does this all on her own. i was so impressed with lizzies candy selling this weekend, she has some natural talent for selling. she and another sibling from our group stole the show at todays candy sales. she is like a shark, calling out "here is another customer!!" rushing people with a sweet, alluring smile. she had her routine down and was gracious when turned down. it is fun to see her growing up and feeling good about camp fire. i will be organizing a group for her starting in june, it will be tough having two groups but lizzie is so ready to be part of something just for her.
