Dixie's Kite-Festival

Every year the kids are sent home from school with reading sheets to fill out. If they read x amount of minutes every day they qualify for a free kite at the Kite-Festival. We have learned that if you don't go right when it opens you don't get your favorite kite or it is very crowded and it's hard to wait in line forever to do some of the activities. This year The characters from Star Wars visited. Abe couldn't have been happier.
Tucker got to practice his rock climbing skills.
Gwynnie got to go down a few slides and apparently she wanted in the bounce house but when she actually got in she just layed there. Mr. Gilly Bear found a balloon when we first entered the festival and was content the rest of the time.

The boys got in the ring to box each other out. Look at the size of these gloves. Tucker figured if he just used one and rammed into his brother it was more effective than having both on. Abe was knocked down constantly by his brother. I was worried that he was going to be upset but I just kept hearing him giggle. In the end though he managed to knock his brother down a few times.
