Block Party = Good Times

I wanted to send a few photos taken last night at our block party. We had 34 adults and 14 kids in total. The town gave us a $100 gift card for Sobeys and everyone brought a dish to share. We had a kids table and this fantastic bouncy castle donated by our neighbour and Remax owner, Brent Melville. We sat around a roaring fire and watched the meteor shower with young and old. What a fantastic summer night filled with new friends and our fantastic community neighbours!
