The Sunshine Sundowner of 2010

My next door neighbor Susan and I decided that it was fine time to have a street party. We have lived here two years and only know a handful of neighbors. Susan has lived here 7 years and only knows a handful of neighbors as well. We came up with the name "The Sunshine Sundowner" for our little shindig, which is perfect considering we live on Sunshine Way. Our intention was to make fliers to give to all the neighbors on the street but Saturday was here before we knew it. We live on a very small street so next year we will definitely get fliers out.

All in all, the turnout was great! We met people from three different houses that we'd never met before. One woman is a store manager for Walgreens (shout out to Kirsten & Rodney!!). I seriously have never even seen her face before. Those managers must work alot!! There are still about 10 more houses of people that we haven't met so we'll conquer them next year!

Hunter "borrowed" Walker's Thomas bike. Hunter has never ridden a bike before and he rode this bike until 10pm! Up and down and up and down the street. At one point he discreetly disposed of his clothes and was down to his boxer briefs and kept on riding...barefoot the whole time!!

One of the cooks, Julian. Holy moly! He made these amazing bacon-wrapped peppers and carne asada. YUM!!!

Hunter and Reagan were loving football!
