VI AND GIL'S 40TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY DINNER

As you all know from reading my blog... Vi is a dear dear friend. She is one of my Paperdoll Girls and we have been scraping together for over 7 years. She is a friend, I believe, God speaks of in the bible. The older generation who mentors the younger and she is "that" mentor to me. She is a Godly woman and a wonderful role model. I am truly blessed to call her friend.

My other great friend Beverly, and also one of the Paperdoll Girls, arranged this surprise Anniversary Party for Vi and Gil. Here are the pictures of the evening...
