Block Party

August 16, 2011 by dailygnome 2 Comments

It’s been nearly a year since we said goodbye to our old home.  Little did we know we were about to land smack in the middle of the best block in Portland. This past weekend we celebrated our street with a block party that included a dog wedding {complete with bone cake}, family relay race, scavenger hunt, evening concert {thanks Justin} and wrapped up with a movie under the stars. We have some amazing neighbors and it was such a delight to spend the day with everyone relaxing, feasting and having fun.
