Memorial Day was celebrated by an old fashioned block party on Hale Ave. The street was blocked off and everyone was safe. We kicked off the festivities with a bike parade, ate tons of food, and played lots of games. Some of our neighbors have been here more than 20 years. They are very excited by the resurgence of little ones on our street, as many of their kiddos are in high school or even off to college. Henry really enjoyed his freedom and was found in many places he did not belong. Now I have to reteach him that it's not okay to run out in the street! Ah, some freedoms are short lived.
