    This sounds like so much fun! You're right - these family outings are a great chance to spend quality time with the most important people in your life, and meet some new friends while you're at it! I'm gathering ideas and planning a First-of-Fall Family Fun Night in New Jersey to welcome in the cooler weather, lovely leaves, and fireflies! We're going to have a barbecue, face painting, spinning wheel for small prizes, and a movie showing...can't wait! Thanks for the ideas :)

    This sounds so much fun! I wish my family and I were able to attend. We have hosted some of our own events though, similar to block parties. My husband and I purchased an Elvis style Spinning Wheel and gave out prizes to the attendees. They absolutely loved it! Thanks for the great read, maybe next year we can try some of the activities that were offered above!
