Up to the highest height

Yee-haw for the Austin Kite Festival! And for all of our fun friends who were able to make what will surely become an annual event: parking and breakfast at our house and a walk down to the park for the festival.
Hold on to your seats--I have a lot of pictures in this post! I don't have one of every single person but it seems like we tried!
Reese, Tatum, and Ainsley pausing for a brief moment.

Quinn reflecting upon Greta.

Beckham trying to make his escape.

Neal and Nico smiling for the camera.

Kellen enjoying kolaches.

Janna, Melissa and Simone all bundled up. It was chilly! And a short two days ago, we hit a record 91 degrees. Sigh.

Herding cats. No, really, everyone got out and packed up in an impressively quick amount of time.

And the stroller brigade is off!

Here we come, Zilker! (thanks Monique for this pic!)

A, R, T and Q all lined up, from behind.

And from the side.

Daddy and Reese, and the maiden voyage of the $4 Cinderella kite.

Jax, with his awesome hat. Cute little man.

Kellen takes an unconventional approach to kite flying.

Cord, rocking the Elmo kite.

Melissa and Simone and their super cute hats. Where did all these kids find their adorable togs??

Kites in the air. I took a lot of pics like this, but you know, I think just posting one will suffice.

One of the "big guys."

Reese watching the big guys.

We got home and Reese decided to do some core work after all those donuts and kolaches.



Good idea, Reese. I am off to yoga to repent for my morning indulgences. ;) Thanks to everyone for turning out and making it such a fun outing. And save the date for 2010, y'all.

Ok, I just discovered "Bain Babble" via "The Mehta Fam" and I love it! Loved seeing all of your pictures from Zilker, especially Q & K, we can never get enough in Reno! ;0) Also, Reese is so cute, looks JUST like her mama! Love the pigtails and helmet pics! Michon
