We hosted our first National Night Out block party. Of course, since
it was a Tuesday, so we didn’t have a huge crowd, but, we had about 20
people total participating, so it was fun.
We had two different taco dips, layered jello, grilled yellow string
beans and fruit salad that got passed around, and our neighbors had
brats, hamburgers, and cheese burgers, while we had barbecued chicken
and ribs.
A couple of our neighbors, we hadn’t met before, so it was cool. A black guy even said we had the best bbq'd ribs he's had from a white guy, and that his wife would be surprised this came from white people. He also loved my grilled beans. :)
What made it super cool, was that the fire department came with a
nice looking fireman, and he had smoke & fire alarms to help put up,
and so one of the neighbors got a new alarm. Also too, the Sheriff’s
department came with McGruff, the Police Dog. I got to talk to them
about April’s Law, and they were really supportive.
Here are some pictures of the event.
