GV of Bethels 42 & 46

It's me again!!!

After Sammy's reception everyone drove all of 10 minutes to the GV of Bethels 42 & 46. It was amazing the number of Daughters present on the floor during the GV! There's nothing like looking out and seeing a sea of robes & cords. It was AWESOME!!

Their theme had to do with classic TV . . .which, to Dad Bill and I means somethings completely DIFFERENT than to the Daughters. For their ceremony the Daughters explained how they were like the characters from Rugrats. I felt it was only fair to share mine during remarks: I'm Angelica. I'm totally willing to admit that I'm a princess. Or at least I am in my own mind. (Yes, I did just put that in writing . . . .)

Each GV I've chosen a different musical to focus on - and this week's was The Sound of Music. My remarks were about one particular song, "My Favorite Things." Bethel 46's musician started playing the song while I was reading the lyrics! It was sooo cool! She even played a bunch of songs from the show during the Coin March! :) It made my day . . . Dad Bill was trying to get her to play the song "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?" I think he wants to rewrite the song to make it about me . . . . .

Everyone's favorite part of the GV (and admittedly, this is my favorite part too) is the dress up time! I'm pretty sure you can guess what they dressed us up as . . . . I'll give you a hint: their names are Lil and Phil. :) We even had the appropriate accessories!!

Thanks to everyone for attending the GV - we hope that you had as much fun as we did!

Our next activity is Bethel 22's Almost Annual Halloween Party - and I hope to see you there!!!

Peace out!
Mom Melanie :)
