The Ideal Cul-de-Sac

The Nadaulds were in town from California and some old friends got together to celebrate. If I had to choose some of my favorite people to all live in the same cul-de-sac, the people below would fit high on that list. (I'd need a really big cul-de-sac because there are others I would add.)

The party looked something like this:

The girls eating dinner while the boys kept kids from drowning in the pool.
(Annie, me, Lindsay, Jenni, Molly, Colleen)

The boys eating while the girls were on pool duty.
(Brian, Lincoln, Joel, Rich, James, Landon)

Lots of LemonHeads, ice cream, Diet Coke, expensive cupcakes, and kids.

Kids drinking Diet Coke.

Cute moms keeping an eye on the pool and swapping babies.

Good friends wearing the same swimsuits.

One of Ethan's very best friends, William, who moved to California 2 years ago and the street has never been the same.

A hot tub full of kids (and possibly urine).

Stunts by dads and kids. (Forgive the crappy photos. I have a crappy camera.)

Landon may or may not have won the cannonball splash competition. He displaces a lot more water than others.

One of my favorite nights this summer with some of my all-time fave people.

Let's make the magical cul de sac happen. We're in.

We've got to kick all my neighbors out but there are exactly that many houses in my cul-de-sac. How's that for an idea?

But now we've got Tricia coming back, so maybe we have to explore kicking Jenni's out.

I agree - by far, one of my highlights this summer.

It must be a drug epidemic in Utah, so many people I know drink Diet Coke. Auntie Gwynne is addicted to it. I'm not sure what it is! Granpa is probably mortified...Root Beer is the drink of choice. I know it is is my family. Is Diet Pepsi an option? BTW your last 2 posts look so fun. Your 4th of July should be on a Norman Rockwell stamp. Love you guys! Come for a visit sometime!!
