This evening we participated in our 1st block party in our new subdivision. This is an annual event sponsored by our builder & real estate agent for the subdivision & it was a great way to meet other neighbors in our 'hood!
The street in front of the office was shut down & tables were set up for all the food. A few of the neighbors spent the entire day out in the street smoking the meat to be served at the potluck. Our builder actually had bought all the meat & paper supplies/utensils which I thought was really nice.
Everyone was instructed to bring a dish or dessert to share as well as a lawn chair. We bought a special lawn chair for Mason earlier in the week to take camping & he was so excited to try it out!
We joined all our neighbors who live in our cul-de-sac & enjoyed sampling all the yummy food people had brought. I chose to make my Oreo Pudding Dessert & it was a HUGE hit! There wasn't even a spoonful left when it was time to go home!

We hung out with our neighbors until it started to get dark & then we packed up the wagon & walked the two short blocks back home.
Mase had so much fun playing with all the big kids from the neighborhood & even met a few new friends that are his age! He did manage to stop for 2 seconds to take a selfie with Mama :)
It was a fun evening getting to know our neighbors better as well as meeting other people in our subdivision. Looking forward to attending this annual get-together every year!
