National Night Out

Last night was "National Night Out" where neighborhoods get together for block parties. We had this in Seattle and it was so fun to get together with neighbors we hadn't seen for awhile and meet new one's that have moved in. Well, Happy Valley loves to do these as well. Apparently there were 17 neighborhoods that participated last night inlcuding one that had 240 people and a live band! The city blocks off the street, they provide hot dogs, chips, and bottled water. The fun part for the kids is the police come in their cars with lights flashing and hand out fun stuff. The firetruck was supposed to come, but I think it got a little delayed when it stopped at the party of 240. Either there were a lot of kids or it was a really good band! Our was a little smaller, but still so much fun. It was a great way to meet our neighbors (we have awesome one's by the way)! There were a ton of kids running around, perfect for our little guys to have a good time as well.
