2nd Annual Neighborhood Block Party

I'm a bit behind on blogging these days! Our neighborhood block party was quite a while ago in the thick of summer. Wow...is it already September?!! Where did the summer go?

This year at our block party we had two surprise guests. The first one was the rain! It rained the entire day. We thought about canceling it, but instead we forged ahead and it turned out to be a great time regardless of the constant drizzle. We had it mostly in our garage...and it made things very cozy. The rain didn't seem to keep very many people away.

The second surprise was the Shoreline Fire Department came for a visit and brought their big truck. The kids were so excited as they got personal tours of the fire truck. The firemen even stayed and chatted with us for a while. What a great neighborhood and community event!! Here are some pictures of our time.

Three cheers for the Shoreline Fire Department!!!

Matt grilling in style! Thank goodness for this little tent covering!
