Saturday: The Grand Finale--Barbie & Ken, the Ultimate Couple Dinner

 The last event at Convention: the grand finale dinner.
 Lots of cute displays at each table....




 Glammed up for the big event!

 A (blurry) dessert! I think the dinner was surf & turf, 
and as you all know, I don't do shrimp and I don't do steak.
I ate chocolate and a protein bar for dinner :)

 Me, Diane, Linda & Laurie--
representing the Richmond Fashion Doll Collectors club! 
Don't you love those pink shoes?


More gifts from Mattell--
vintage party clothes for Barbie and Ken in the authentic vintage packaging. 





 Then...the big moment...
we all reached under the table and pulled out the 
tissue-wrapped boxes containing the OFFICIAL CONVENTION DOLL 
that we had all be speculating about.
 After a countdown from 10, every conventioneer
ripped the tissue off at the same time for the big reveal!
 My first platinum label doll--and a gift set at that!
 We were all shocked to receive TWO gift sets at convention!
 I LOVE Barbie's vintage dress, jewelry and hairdo,
but that Ken reminds me of a monkey.



 Oh yeah, and we got some other goodies from our tablemates, too.
