What we saw when we first got there.
These round kites were so cool! I kept thinking, with the wind that we get, if you harnessed one of those to your back and tried to walked against the wind you could get a serious work-out! Maybe I'll have to come up with a kite work out kit! Look for me on QVC in the near future! J/K
So the focus of this day was Child Abuse Awareness, which I am a huge advocate for. This was the first year they did this at San Rafael Park in Reno . For the first 250 kids that show up they get a free kite! My kids were ecstatic! And it was the perfect day to fly kites!(meaning, it was nice and windy, nothing new there!)

This park also has tons of trails and and has an Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, very cool place! Anyhow, along our little walk we saw these cuties and my kids went nuts! The baby ducks were adorable and followed their Mama wherever she went. Why can't human kids do that??
They had a cool dinosaur area where the kids climbed all over the different dinosaurs. Bryan included!
Quick pic with the kids in what I think was supposed to be a dinosaur skull.
Bryan playing around at the dinosaur slide.It really was a great day! We packed a lunch and had a picnic there and just had fun being together. On the way home the kids got ice-cream at McDonald's and Bryan and I hit U- Swirl for some frozen yogurt.
*(confession: I am addicted to U-Swirl! Loveit!!)
