Our neighbor, Laurie, invited the girls over last night for pizza to celebrate back to school. They went, along with their friends Maria, Jennifer and Matt. I baked brownies for dessert, and they had a blast. They played games, and then went in the street to draw with chalk--slogans for cars to slow down and watch for kids playing.
I was just so amazed that she would do this! In this day and age, to have a neighbor who goes out of her way to make the kids happy, celebrate the new school year with them, and have fun--what could be better than that?
Although I have to say that the chalk drawings might have been better at the beginning of the summer, when the kids were actually out all day playing, instead of at school (or at home doing school work, in our case)!!! :)
