Fourth of July Block Party

Ilene and I had a great turnout for our neighborhood block party! Nine families from the 'hood and two other families joined us to celebrate on the 4th. We are so happy there was so much interest from the neighbors! We'll have to do it again soon!

Our invite read:

"We the People (at 2XXX Calle Patina),
In order to form a more perfect party
Hereby invite YOU to an Independence Day celebration!
Oh say can you bring your lawn chairs and a side dish to share?
Please R.S.V.P. by July 3rd to ..."

Our nice, big backyard played host to the par-tay!

Mmm. Dessert. The most important part of a well-rounded meal.

Homemade apple pie with streusel topping--I used apples from the tree in our backyard.

I love it! Looks like you guys had so much fun. Can I be an honorary member of your block the next time you do it?
