Tim's Newest Hobby

Since we moved to Moses Lake... Tim has become very excited about kite boarding. I don't know why he waited so long (One of the best kiteboarding spots in the country is just outside Portlad). He started out with just a little kite a few years ago (a stunt kite) and has gradually moved up to a trainer power kite (3 meters) and now to a full sized kiteboarding kite (14 square meters). The last one he got is so huge. He rolled the thing out in the family room when he first got it... it took up the whole room, probably some twenty feet long.

Even though he hasn't taken any lessons or anything, he thought it would be fun to take out his new (to him) kiteboarding kite. We went out on Moses Lake yesterday to give it a try. After nearly an hour of setting up and trying to figure out how to get the lines to work, he finally got it up and it was a beauty.

Macy had a blast running around on the beach and playing in the sand, popping through her clothes, and playing in her daddy's shirt.
