Seattle Night Out

I organized our area block party, which is part of the city wide Seattle Night Out. “Night Out” is a national Crime Prevention event. It is designed to heighten crime prevention awareness, increase neighborhood support in anti-crime efforts, and unite our communities. It is a great chance to learn about crime prevention, while also celebrating your community and spending time with your neighbors.



It was a fun night visiting with our neighbors and meeting new ones.



I am sure you can tell what I brought for the block party? Blueberry cupcakes! The recipe is from Trophy Cupcakes and they were wonderful! Perfect for an August get-together.





This was the ONLY 30 seconds that Colin sat down in the three hours we were out there. He literally ran the entire time!



Our neighbor, Nancy made an ice cream stand for the kids! They had a great time selling their wares!



The one who got the most attention was Monty! He is visiting us for a few days. He is a great dog and so easy and mellow! We LOVE Monty!!

We had so much fun! Thanks for organizing. Wish we could have block parties more often, but no, I'm not volunteering to organize one at the moment!

What a great picture of the Monty man! He was sad to leave.
