Up Up & Away!
Yesterday was Kite Day in Palatine so we jumped in our car to fly kites as a family. We invited some of our best friends the Borher family. Doug & Julia couldn’t make it. The rest of the clan showed up and we had a good time catching up with Joy and playing with Tiffanie & Deanna.
The wind was sporadic so flying kites was a little challenging. We’re actually closet kite geeks. We have three sweet parafoils. One of the parafoils is 6 feet by 6 feet, which we call “The Beast”. Unfortunately the Beast doesn’t see much flying time as it requires two guys to fly it. It literally pulled me off the ground in the past. So yesterday we had the smaller kites up with our usual array of spinners and line laundry.
Tiffanie & Deanna both took turns with Brian flying the parafoil. Eileen O. Daday, a reporter from the Daily Herald was walking around and got a few quotes from Tiffy & Brian. How cool! Apperently there’s more to Brian’s & Joy’s relationship, just as some past Creekers thought.
Meanwhile, While Brandon somehow found someone else’s stroller 30 yards away that had not toys, not snacks, but books in it.
We had a good time chating with Joy. We missed spending time with Julia and the “big time Motorola executive”.

Apparently, We now find out that Brian has an illegitimate daughter! We always thought there was something about Brian’s and Tiffinie’s curly hair!
Brian, I thought you never kept secrets from your mother?? So when can I meet my granddaughter?
Glad you guys had a great time flying. Some of us
knew about the geekiness in you guys…
SO Brandon found books to read in someone elses stroller? He is NEVER going to give up ABC’s
