Single Motherhood Day #42

We flew back home bright and early this morning.  Evelynd was said to say goodbye to Nana and Grandpa Evans (and the horses), but we'll see them again at the end of the week!

When we landed in Portland, I immediately found a Burgerville for a delicious lunch, including fresh blackberry milkshakes.  We stopped at GG'ma and GG'pa's house on the way home and had a good visit.  On the drive home, we got a call from Dassow Daddy and I burst into tears.  It had been a long time since I'd heard from him and although it was only five minutes, it was nice. 

Once we were home, we decided that we were going to the neighborhood block party for National Night Out.  We didn't have anything to bring (our cupboards were bare and the food in the fridge was a little less than fresh), but that was okay.  There was good food, lots of neighbors (only a couple of whom I didn't know), live music, Red Robin (Evelynd was fascinated and scared of that bird), and toys for the kids.

Evelynd finished the night by rolling on one of the kids' chalk drawings.
