SUMMERTIME FUN

I absolutely love our summers up here in Maple Valley. This morning it was a bit cloudy but then by afternoon it was gorgeous. Not too hot and not too cold. Not hot enough for swimming though but the kids still had big time fun.

We had a total of 7 moms and 16 kids. Phew! Plus and a dog and cat. Phew! The kids had fun playing Wii, fuseball, bubbles, tag your it. Then Keri brought over "The Beast" as she calls it, the bouncy house.

Of course we had all kinds of food and drinks for the kids, then there was the Margaritas for us moms.

Today was also a great opportunity for our new neighbor Corry and her kids a chance to meet the other families in our neighborhood. She already knew Keri and her family.

We are all hoping that things work out for Corry and her family. They just moved in just before the fourth of July and just recently found out that the owner of the house has not been making his payments and the house is in foreclosure. In fact while she was over here at our house the mailman came knocking on her door to serve her the papers. How's that for a "howdy do" to the neighborhood?

As it turns out, we have another neighbor Andy, who is getting ready to evict his tennents out of his house and it will soon be available. The downside is that it is a smaller house than the one Corry and her family are already in.
