Last weekend we attended the northeast Reno's Celebration of Successes at the Boys and Girls Club. The music was too loud (band's name was "Good Question") and a little weird (70's 8-track funk via the DJ), but the free food and ice cream was good, and the kids got to pet a horse. We went to another quieter park (Pickett Park) afterward and the kids (Becky, Mari, Miguel) played on the new playground equipment.

Other recent activities include: General Conference, walks at Mira Loma Park, took care of Bonny for a few days whilst the family was in Idaho, watched some movies (Jet Li's "The One", "10 Things I Hate About You", "Dinosaur", "The Land Before Time: The Big Freeze", "Shrek", "Goldfinger", "Deep Impact", and "A Tale of Two Cities"), went to the Dollar Store and got a bird, nabbed some new shirts at Factory 2 You, and went driving around exploring Sparks - there are some nice houses out by Queen Way, if you haven't seen them, it's worth a look. Found a street called "Richards Way". =)

Okay, everyone knows about Krusteaz (the pancake mix), but the real question is how is it pronounced?: "crusties" or "crus-TEASE"? I hope it's the latter, as the former is just disgusting. We stopped by Sonic Drive-In and I tried their fairly new grilled chicken wrap thingy and Misti tried their banana creme pie shake thingy. I thought mine was okay, but Misti loved hers.
