National Night Out

Once again, we hosted our block's National Night Out party.  This year we decided to go all out and have a dinner together.  In the past, we have done an ice cream social sort of thing, but the neighbors all wanted to do dinner this year, so that's what we did.  It was a great time and, despite the sweltering weather, we had a good turn-out.  The kids, as always, thoroughly enjoyed playing in the street and running around after dark.  The visit by the city's police dog was a big hit, too.

Now that that event is out of the way, it's time for me to get to packing :-)

Oh, sadly, we also send Rebekah, Daniel, and Isabella on their way back home to PA.  We had a great visit with them and will miss them a lot :-(
