Block Party!


Ashlyn, Nellie, Gentry, Sydney?, Spencer, and Peyton

Brynn and Landen fought over the tractor

The buggy ride! It was a full house!

Our driver's, thanks guys!


This last weekend we were able to attend a neighborhood block party! It was so much fun. I have always read about them in the Family Fun magazine and actually wanted to put one on one day. Anyways, the Simpkins did a great job and we got to spend time with our great neighbors! We all brought a Harvest Casserole, and the Simpkins cooked homegrown corn-on-the-cob, made homemade root beer and my personal favorite, MAPLE BARS! Just like the fairs, minus the long line! Needless, to say I gained about 10 pounds that night, but oh, it was worth it! And then to top off the night they took the kids on a horse-drawn buggy ride! The kids had a blast! It was a fun night, except when we had to leave early, because our youngest son was throwing the biggest tantrum I have ever seen him throw! (he was tired).
