A Fashion "Backward" Girl Scout Party

My daughter has a wonderful Girl Scout Troop Leader
who is hosting a Historical Fashion Show tomorrow.
She has arranged for the girls to wear Girl Scout uniforms
from years past and model them for their families.

I thought it would be fun to have cupcake toppers
to reflect the fabulous theme and honor the girls.
Most of them have been in the troop since they were in Kindergarten.


In addition to the fashion show Girl Scout memorabilia will be displayed. My mom sent us a picture of her as a Girl Scout in Iowa along with her handbook.
Here she is the exact same age as my daughter!

I also have my sash and handbook!
(it comes in handy to have a mother who never throws anything away!)

  2. I am so proud of my 2 Girl Scout legacies and that they do everything in such style. I have forwarded this to several of my '49 Scout friends who are in the picture. Good Job, Alexis & Carolyn.
