We had our first block party since moving into the neighborhood 8 years ago. Despite it getting really chilly at the end, it turned out to be very nice. Hopefully this will be an annual thing, but who wants to be in charge of it... NOT ME! :)
They even invited the firemen to come visit. Madeline and Meredith were hesitant, but they did enjoy watching the firefighter get all dress up in his gear. He, on the other hand, was sweating bullets!! 
I actually probably learned a lot more than they did after explaining all about their truck and equipment. Very interesting! Madeline was even brave and sat inside the truck. Meredith decided sitting on the curb at that point was more desirable.
The girls got to make their very own door hangers and buckeye necklaces while there. The necklaces turned out super cute! Of course, our neighbor had a flat screen TV set up outside to watch The Ohio State Buckeyes win. One of the games was eating a powdered sugar donut off the string without knocking it down. The girls did pretty well at this. They were so dainty and clean about it. WHY DOESN'T THIS HAPPEN AT HOME?!

?Today, was Madeline and Meredith's first day at "Sunday school". They seemed to really enjoy it (especially after them whining about going to church all morning) . Matt and I attended mass by ourselves. WOW! That was strange not to be shooshing 2 little girls for an hour.
