Summer Fun Part II - Biggest Block Party Ever!

For the third year in a row, our stretch of Kennedy Street has hosted a block party in June (I realize that was several months ago now...). The first year, we had a good turnout from our block and a few friends too. By the second year, we realized we needed to invite more people to eat all of the good food our neighbors make for the party. This year, while we were missing friends and neighbors who've moved away, we ended up having the biggest block party ever!

We've made a lot of new friends in the neighborhood this summer and gotten to know others a lot better, which made for a great crowd. We had a kiddie pool for swimming, a supersize moon bounce, and face painting courtesy of neighbor Erica.

For fun and games, we had a water balloon toss (that quickly turned into a water balloon fight) and "cornhole," an import from Ohio known as a bean bag toss everywhere else. We even had a TV set up outside to watch USA play in the World Cup.

We're already planning the next one!
