All over the US, people in all kinds of different neighborhoods got together last night at the neighborhood park or at someone's home. We have several new homes being built in our neighborhood and lots of new people moving in and so my neighbors, Liz and Jeff, decided to invite everyone over to their home for a party.
To my surprise, we had a fantastic turnout! Apparently it's a very big deal in Bryan-College Station because we found out that there were around 70 parties in our area!!! If you register your party with the City of College Station, they will send over a police car and/or firetruck to celebrate with you. I was overly impressed when the mayor of College Station showed up at our party!!! We also had 2 different police cars and a firetruck come in the evening.
I really enjoyed getting to meet all the different people we live around and also the new young families moving into our neighborhood in the months to come. I'm looking forward to having many more get-togethers with friends and neighbors and our kids are really looking forward to meeting up again with all their new friends!
