I'm taking Cake Balls
Tonight is our street's semi annual block party, which explains why it's so freaking cold out.
I really enjoy getting together with the neighbors, but it rarely happens. I don't know when we became so busy that it became hard to find a few minutes to go outside and play with the neighborhood kids, but it seems like you can't just go knock on your friends door and expect her to come out and play anymore. Everybody's always got somewhere to go or homework to do.
I'm finally going to appreciate summer vacation for what it is, a break from the routine.

When my kids were in preschool I dreaded summer vacation. The time where I am just unable to provide the level of stimulation that the kids need everyday and I would go a little crazy. Once they started elementary school that totally switched around. I now like days off. Not getting up at 6 and going going going until bedtime. Now we all really enjoy the unstructured time to do all sorts of fun things we normally dont have time for. It's weird how it switched.
