neighborhood picnic

When we moved into our new neighborhood, we knew we liked it because of the beautiful nature around our house, the bike trails are just a few minutes away, there are two very nice parks right around the corner, and it is a great location in town...

and then a few weeks ago we got an invitation to a neighborhood picnic--and I liked our neighborhood even more! They amazing thing is, this neighborhood has been having an annual summer picnic since 1916!!!

The picnic was this past Sunday at one of the parks right down the street. We had a fun time and met lots of our neighbors!

The party started with the adults talking and the kids playing...

Levi showing off that he can walk up and down the tables...

funny thing, in the picture below is the husband and wife that owned our house before us--they just happened to be at the park while the picnic was going on!
Next it was time to EAT! Everyone was to bring any dish they wanted to share...there were lots of good things--Yummy!

After everyone was stuffed full, there were games for the kids.

A race!

Isaiah was doing pretty good until they got to the other side and were supposed to run back...he just kept running, after he heard us yelling for him to come back, he turned around and finished the race (in last place!!:)

Silly boy.

What a fun Sunday afternoon!
