Culdesac of Fire '08

Last night our culdesac has the "Culdesac of Fire" every year. This is the 5th year (that's when the first family moved into this culdesac) Scott & Jill throw the party every year, they go to tons of work! There's a cotton candy machine, sno-cone machine, Moonwalk, dunk tank, and hamburgers & hot dogs for FREE to everyone in the neighborhood. They block off the street so the kids are safe! We mark in on or calendars every year to not miss it, sadly Ryan missed it due to Scuba class. Everyone brings desserts & salads to share, and we all make donation to help out with the cost. Samantha had fun doing the dunk tank, she said the water was freezing (as you can see in the little picture her eyes are huge). The other kids ran around like crazy from the sugar high, made shots at the dunk tank, and played with the ice in the drink pool! After dark the fireworks & glow sticks come out. We are so thankful that we were able to move into this culdesac, we have spent a lot of late nights hanging out with the neighbors and letting our kids play. And I spend many, many, many afternoons watching the kids play and chatting with the other moms, thank girls you all make being a mom easier and more fun. I would miss it if I ever had to move.

Thanks SCOTT & JILL!
