Father's Day {2015}

 For Father's Day this year we decided to head to Botanica for a kite festival!!
 It was a hot day but there were a lot of people (and kites!) there.
 The kids have really been into kites lately so we knew they would love this!
It was a little tough to get the kites going because we were kind of down in a valley - but once we got it high enough in the air we were set!  
Elena giving it a go.  
Dom's turn! He was a little worn out from the heat and preferred a seat on Daddy's shoulders.
 See those bouncy houses in the back? You knew it was just a matter of time before the kids wanted in!
 So they bounced...
and I watched...
and they bounced some more...
and Daddy ended up being the only one flying the kites! Ha ha!
Dom tried again and ended up accidently letting go and that thing took off into the trees! Daddy took off after it and ended up scaling a tree to get to the string but right as he was grabbing his knife to cut it loose another gust took it away! Bummer! But seriously - what a great Dad! I think he definitely deserves this title for everything that he does for his family! Love you Babe and Happy Father's Day!!

A jam-packed weekend!

Back in Feb we had some unseasonably warm weather one weekend and it just happened to be the weekend before Robert had to leave for a work trip for a couple weeks, so we took advantage of the weather and packed everything fun and outdoorsy we could think of into it! :) We started with Family Fun Day at Botanica. So many fun activities and things for the kids to do - it was great!
 We also found out the Elena has some mad jumping skills! We may just have a little track star on our hands! (that would make daddy so happy!)
 It looks like Robert is on his phone but he is actually playing "Uptown Funk" for us while we were walking - its kinda like our theme music! LOL!
Then we headed out for lunch at....you guessed it...Stearman! It was perfect timing on this too because there were seriously about 15 planes on the runway when we arrived!! Perfect!! 
 We even got to watch this big jet take off - it was so loud!!
 Dominic is so funny and loves this place so much! He cracks us up! :)
 
 Finally for Sunday Funday we hit up the zoo!!
I think we fit as much family fun into one weekend as possible!! :)
