Let's Go Fly A Kite....

It's been a fun and adventurous weekend for the Appersons! So thankful for a relaxing few days with lots of family time. 

I was able to enjoy a few kitchen 'dates' with my Braden - making Lemon Blueberry Pancakes for breakfast on Saturday before Ryder got up and then Lemon Almond Bread this morning. (I had a bag of lemons to use up :) I even got out of the shower to find the dishwasher running and kitchen sparkling. <3  

Ryder's first Mickey Mouse pancake. 

These two found crazy get-ups in the morning and Ryder has had a ball putting the  hats on and off.

Perhaps the most fun that Ryder and Daddy had was putting together a new airplane kite (thanks Costco!) and flying it on our blustery Saturday.

Some assembly required.
Definitely a two person job. :)

Ryder could have stayed outside all day and been entertained by the dips and dives his kite took.  The plane is now hanging from the ceiling in his room and still inducing that childish amazement. 

First on Daddy's shoulders.

Then, 'Ryder do it'

 We were blessed and challenged by the message from Matthew 12 at church this morning. A tree is known by its fruit - the words we speak expose the condition of our heart. We are accountable for every careless word spoken, no matter our circumstances.  Food for thought...

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
