Last Hurrah

I know. I know. It's so shocking. Krista actually has to play blog catch up. I am usually so on top of blogging. But alas...it happens even to the best of us. Ha!

Way back in 2011 (haha) our neighborhood homeowners association asked us to do one last hurrah just before we moved. (Or really--just before we THOUGHT we were moving. Before our move got extended.) Us Dials--we are always suckers for hurrahs. And definitely we are always up for throwing hurrahs. :)

And so...here is a glimpse of some of the fun.

Of course there was lots of food, games, giveaways, and prizes. Even if I didn't take pictures of them. :)




Bounce house.



Obstacle course.



Police car to check out. And not 1--but 2 firetrucks.



Those firemen were so awesome! Letting the kids climb all over the trucks and showing them all the cool stuff.





They even brought equipment for relay races:



A local radio station came and broadcast live on site:



There was also an amazing telescope set up. I could NOT believe the views of the moon and stars that we were able to see! Incredible!! However...the view from the picture below? Not so amazing. But you get the idea.



And well...since the hurrah was so last year and because I am old and senile...that's all I remember. We are missing our friends and neighbors from the old neighborhood. But we also love our new neighbors and are already plotting some hurrahs in this neck of the woods. :)
