We seriously live in the best neighborhood in the world. When we were looking for a house I dreamed of the kind of place where you were forced to drive SUPER slow on the way to your house because there were so many kids outside playing. I wanted to be friends with our neighbors and I wanted kids constantly around our house. I'm so thankful that we got exactly that. It's the kind of place where for every Halloween the past three years, I think Allie has only rang about 5 doorbells while trick or treating because EVERYone is out on their driveway, camped out in chairs, and having a great time outside. I LOVE it.
Every year we have a block party at the end of our street and it is a total blast. This year we even had a gigantic bounce house in the culdesac for all the kids. There was BBQing, face painting by the older kids, playing with TONS of toys and a ton of yummy food. We were there for 4 hours and the girls loved every second. We loved hanging out with all of our neighbors while all of the kids played. A part of me is okay with the fact that the market tanked and we are stuck with our house for a long time because at least we love it! ha!
