Second Hand Rose is RS Party Theme

In the "worst economic climate in 70 years," big and little sisters of the Bloomington 7th Ward gathered for fun, food, friendship and to celebrate the Relief Society's 167th birthday on Wednesday night. The evening included dinner (chicken enchiladas, refried beans and cake), socializing, a show of fashion from local thrift stores and grandma’s attic; and, shopping for "second hand hats, second hand clothes for all us Second Hand Rose(s)." Beautiful gowns, fashionable sportswear - even a Navy uniform - purchased at rock bottom prices, were modeled by the young and young-at-heart sisters of the ward. Special thanks to Jill Jones, fashion show narrator; Rebecca and Taylor Olivo for their energetic rendition of "Second Hand Rose" and to chairwoman Jeanine Smith and her dinner committee including Margaret Hooks, Dori Wilkerson, Margo Parker, Marilyn Orlossy, LaRae Wheeler and Deanne Hill. (Sorry about the poor quality of these photos - the settings were wrong!)
