A Presentation of Two Special Conventions

Saturday, October 26, 2013: After MANY hours of preparation, Rhonda, Mike & I hosted a special presentation of both Rhonda's trip to the Yokohama, Japan, Special Convention and our trip to the Pretoria, South Africa, Special Convention. We presented slideshows & videos of our trips, an interview, and highlights of a DVD that was given to visiting delegates by the South Africa branch.
As you can see, Rhonda wore a kimono that a Japanese sister gave to the Reno sisters. Thanks to Julie & YouTube, Rhonda got into the kimono & Julie tied a perfect bow in the back.
We enjoyed associating afterwards and telling more stories. And we enjoyed sharing goodies from South Africa and Japan.
Thank you to our friends & family who came and spent the afternoon with us. A BIG THANK YOU to the friends who traveled from Fernley, Silver Springs and Gabbs! It meant so much to us to have you there. Especially the sisters from Fernley who cancelled a get-together to join us.
