labor day

We have some wonderful neighbors, Ryan and Heather, who make a special effort to get everyone on our street together a few times a year. Today they planned for us to go up to our neighborhood school (which starts tomorrow) and do some work on the grounds. We spoke with the janitor last week and he was overwhelmed with all that needed to be done. So it was great that we could help out. After the work was done, we headed back to Ryan and Heather's for a BBQ.

What a great way to spend Labor Day! Working hard. Building community. Lending a helping hand. Hopefully we've started an annual tradition.

Pretty cool how much work 16 adults and 21 kids can do in just under two hours!
