Many students from our Ikebana flower arranging class were invited to celebrate our Sensei’s 50th wedding anniversary and their 77th birthdays. Akiko and her husband Walt Bourland both celebrate their 77th birthdays this year as well as being married for 50 years. It was held at the
Bahia Resort Hotel in the Mission Bay area. It was a very nice traditional american anniversary celebration with many friends and family present. Akiko wanted to arrange the centerpieces, but her daughters objected to that and assembled these clever floral displays with their youthful pictures at the center.
It was nice to see many students from our class at the celebration. In total, we sat at more than two tables. Pictured here are Trudi, Margie, Gail, and Kim. It was wonderful to see each one of us dressed up and we got to know each other a little better. Trudi also celebrated her 50th wedding anniversary this year!
