We live in a beautiful city, and we chose Q day to explore a new space in our place. Nana, Auntie Shelley, S, and baby J joined us for our adventure that included water, sun & ice cream!
 |
| We started off at the new Smale park, it's right on the riverbank of the Ohio River. |
 |
| There is a lot to do there, including this foot keyboard that really worked! |
 |
| This elliptical-like swing was fun too. |
 |
| After a walk through the park, we walked across the street to this beautiful indoor carousel. Every creature on it has some special significance to Cincinnati. Above is a Bengal tiger. |
 |
| T chose this tribute the Reds to ride on. |
 |
| This one was my favorite, Go Bearcats! |
 |
| K elected for this one dedicated to the Cincinnati Ballet. |
 |
| A quick selfie. I just love this little man! |
 |
| Just outside the carousel was one of several splashpads at Smale Park. The kids had a blast splashing around and cooling off. I took lots of pictures of them having fun in the sun. |
 |
| All of us had fun at the splashpad, including Shelley & Baby J! |
 |
| We took another walk through the park to dry off and to swing on these beautiful swings that overlook the river. |
 |
| I could have sat here forever! |
 |
| My cute swing partner. |
 |
| After all of that fun we were hungry for lunch. Skyline was the perfect answer as we were still celebrating our city. K & T love Skyline. K usually goes for a kids' 3 way, while T wants a hot dog with lots of cheese on the side. |
 |
| We finished up our Queen City tour with a stop at Graeter's ice cream. T chose cotton candy and K wanted strawberry both with sprinkles. |
 |
| Black Raspberry Chip is the favorite flavor of many people in our family, K too. Yum! |
Q is for Queen City. Thank you Cincinnati for giving us a fantastic family day!
