And with summer, comes ice-creams! Last Tuesday our street had its first ice-cream night. One family supplied ice-creams for all the kids (and some adults) on the street. We all trooped down to Jody's house at 7pm, the kids on their scooters and bicycles (Scott stayed at home to study his German - yes, I did eat one for him). The neighbours are going to take it in turns to host. The little kids all ended up in a circle playing "Duck Duck Goose". They were so cute. I dragged my kids home at about 8:30. We were the first to leave (meanest mother!). I found out the next day that other families stayed till about 10pm (cranky kids!). It was a great chance to get to know some more people on the street. Now I just have to improve my conversation skills, and remember that my dry Aussie humour doesn't really work in America.
