block party.

on saturday, we had a neighborhood halloween block party.
it was the first ever in the history of our street. although four of us [neighborhood moms] get together regularly, it was nice to mingle with the rest of the families. with over 50+ people who attended, i'd say it was a success. many have already expressed interest in the next one.

i pulled these shorts out of the motherload for mini-she, but ended up keeping them for myself. i just realized [while typing this post] that it has animals on it. all these years i thought it was camoflauge.

are you close with your neighbors?
what are your plans for halloween?

foxy brown was in full effect.
best part was the afterparty in the garage.
(old navy sweater; da-nang shorts; bag c/o justfab; shoes, etienne aigner via ideeli)

Nice outfit! Love the shorts!
We don't celebrate Halloween here, so no plans.
As for the neighbors, we're close to some old ones, but rarely know some of the new ones.

Block parties are fun! Our neighborhood has never done one, but I have been to friend's block parties. We are pretty friendly with everyone on our street, so now I am wondering why we have never done a block party, lol.

Loving the wavy hair today. Cute shorts and moccasins too. Heather

cute costume!! i think it's awesome that you're so close to your neighbors. i live in a lane, so we are somewhat close, but not like you and your neighbors. i dressed up last week for a halloween party as cheshire cat, just threw some things together. usually i love to go to a watch a kids halloween costume contest, i think it's so cute. on halloween, i stay home for the early part and help pass out candy, then go find my friends later on in the night and just see what happens. what are the minis gonna be?? wishing all of you a safe and happy halloween!

Love the print of the shorts, they look so pretty and super comfy too. The necklace is just beautiful.

PS: Thank you for sharing the story of your sister's dog, so glad you found him safe and sound.

lawyerdoll said...

Cool shorts... and I'm crazy about your necklace!

We don't really know out neighbors, we just nod and say "hi"... that's about it.

Elisse said...

i think it's so great that you organized a block party :) And I'm jealous that you get to wear shorts still during this time of year ;)

smugnificent said...
