Neighborhood Happy Hour Joy

 Wonderful neighborhood Happy Hour last night.

One of our neighbors brought their parents visiting from Bangalore, and said the weather in Seattle right now reminds them of home.

Talked to other neighbors about their trip several weeks ago to Portugal.

Our newest member of the community--baby Bodie, born two weeks ago--was brought by his radiant momma along with his three older sisters. There were adorable littles and dogs everywhere.

He was passed around from one loving friend and neighbor to the next for a little brand-new-baby therapy. He has six fingers on one hand, and I told him I knew a pirate who was looking for him.

Met neighbors I hadn't met before and their almost-2-year-old son, who fixated on me the moment he arrived. He munched his slice of watermelon by my side, trying to offer it to share with me. I demured. I am told he is very shy and takes a long time to warm up to people, so everyone kinda marveled that he made me his pal immediately. I mean, he had a dinosaur shirt on. He's my people!

Food brought included slices of mushroom flatbread, heirloom tomato bruschetta, gyozas, lots of fresh fruit, and individual cups of German chocolate cake.

A couple of hours in the sun with a wonderful group of people I am lucky to call my neighbors. I crashed hard in bed at 9:30pm (I normally go to bed at midnight), but it was worth it the energy expenditure to join in the fun.
