Last night Shelly and I were making cookies when about 7:30 the doorbell rang. We both looked at each other. Who could possibly be at our door this late (thinking of Zack's friend Trent).

I go to the door and open it and in the street is about 25 people gathered, children and adults alike and they start to sing Christmas carrols to us. Wow!!!! I was floored.

They got done with one song and yelled out "Welcome to the neighborhood" and then started in with another song.

Hopefull we things settle down we can meet more of our neighbors. They've really gone out of their way to make us feel welcomed.
