Bike Parade 2009
Let's try this....
On Saturday Maddie and I went over to our old (beloved) neighborhood for the annual Block Party.
There were pinatas, egg tosses, crafts, water balloon fights, a movie outside, scavenger hunts (2), a kid's bake off, candy, 20 desserts and yet...
If we'd only shut the street and let the kids ride their bikes up and down all day long they would have been just as happy with the block party.


You're back! I love the kids on bikes - they're too cute!
Just wanted to say that I have similar tendencies regarding things going wrong - tears are a BIG part of my "solution" to the problem. I won't give you examples, but trust me, they're there. I'm 45, right? Nah - I think my age is closer to 12...

any chance you can post the scavenger hunt list or is it specific to that neighborhood? our block party is coming up, and i'm stumped re: the scavenger hunt.

It's like giving a kid a new toy, and all they are enthralled is the box it came in. =) I too would love to hear what was on the scavanger hunt list. Sounds like a good bday party activity.

All the kids wear bike helmets? That IS a perfect neighborhood. My helmeted kids are like freaks from another planet around here, but so far none of them have actually noticed they're the only ones, so we're still okay!

Some do, some don't.
What your parents say is the rule. It's as easy as that.
