Holiday Block Party 2021

Call me crazy, but when I heard I could rent reindeer for a party, I just couldn't resist closing the street and throwing a little party! So on Sunday, November 28th we did just that. In addition to having live reindeer from the Rainier Reindeer Ranch, we had warm beverages, cookies, an ornament making station, and a giving tree to benefit the YWCA.

Victor and Bunny, our reindeer ambassadors, were adorable and hungry - eating raisins from the palms of the young and young at heart. Fun fact: reindeer do not have top, front teeth. Because of their anatomy, they actually don't eat carrots.

An important part of the event was our Giving Tree and I’m proud to say every ornament (child and parent) on our tree was taken! We raised over $1,300.00 to donate to the King County of YWCA to help families in need this season. Thank you to my wonderful friends, clients, and neighbors for helping me fulfill so many Christmas wishes. Because of you, families will be able to holiday shop for their children and provide a warm holiday meal for their family.

When I decided to host a Holiday Block Party, I hoped 30 people would come. Never would have guessed for over 150 people to stop by and help kick off the holiday season with me! Thank you for making my first (but definitely not my last) Holiday Block Party a HUGE success. Until next year!
