NBDCC 2011–Beach Party and Silent Auction

The first scheduled social event of the official convention was a beach party.  As we waited to enter the ballroom during cocktail hour, we were given Ken hand tags .  A big “Thank You” to Pam for being my tag model!

There was such an atmosphere of  joy and anticipation.  It was so much fun to renew Barbie friendships and have the opportunity to make new Barbie friends.

…and the silent auction too.  I was  too busy visiting to take photos of  all of the silent auction entries but here are a few that I did get.  There were some really phenomenal entries this year!

  1. I am finding all of your convention posts very interesting. I like the ‘blow by blow’ descriptions of what happened at each event. Loved seeing the pictures of the donated items. I would have been broke if I had attended. There is so much to buy!!!

    • Thank you so much Terri! I am glad you are enjoying. Don’t even get me started on my poor empty wallet after this convention LOL! There is indeed so many amazing things to see and buy at the NBDCC.
