We threw a Labor Day weekend block party with our neighbors yesterday afternoon.. a water slide, some lots of bikes and tricycles in the cul-de-sac and lots and lots and LOTS of good food.. all a combination for a great time with good friends..
We love going for walks with our neighbors on these nice springtime evenings...
While we're on the topic of dressing up, Bryce and Maddy (from across the street) have been really getting into the spirit the last few weeks!
Our Fourth of July this year came in two phases.
Phase I: an afternoon picnic (once it got cool enough for anyone to set foot outside), complete with slip-n-slide, with the neighbors..
Nothing says July 4 like a Nathan's Hot Dog!
Blaine and Aidan on the slip-n-slide..

Happy Fourth of July!We love our neighbors. Really, we do.
Over Memorial Day weekend, we put up a tent out on the cul-de-sac, brought out a couple of grills, blew up a few kiddie pools, set up a bunch of chairs, put some beer and juiceboxes on ice in a few coolers, and spent the whole day out visiting, eating good food, and watching the kids play, and play, and play!
