Miss. Vacationland

Sorry for being so MIA lately!! I have been super busy spending time with my pageant family. I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the Miss. Vacationland pageant this last month. While I was there, I got to spend some quality time with one of the princesses Olivia Anderson! She looks great and was so much fun to get to know! I also got to spend some time with my good friend Allison Goodwin. She, like always, looked stunning and was a pleasure to hang out with.

I know, you all want the details, well the winner of Miss.Vacationland was...... the beautiful, talented, well-spoken, April O'Brien!! She defiantly deserves the title and is going to do an amazing job.

I cannot thank Gloria and Jay enough for having me attend the pageant and for always being there to support me! Thanks so much you two!!

I am also pleased to announce to you all that I will be competing in the Pure American Pageant with Nicole Lyle!! I can't wait!!!

Voting for YOUR Country

By now everyone is ready for the election to be over and for all the political ad campaigns to be over with! I know I am!! I ask all of you who are eligible to vote tomorrow to please do so. This is your country and you should have a say in who is running it! I'm not going to say who is the right choice and who is not, because frankly it doesn't matter who I want, as a country we need to come together and make the right decision! That decision though, can only be made if all eligible voters vote! 

Good luck everyone and lets be proud of America!!
 

Hope and Prayers after Sandy

Well, it's officially one week after the saddest week this year has started. This time last week many of us were starting to lose the precious power in our home and scary skies were coming their ways. My tiny town where I live seems to suffer greatly! The majority of my town was without power until last Saturday afternoon or even coming in to Sunday. I am so thankful to have power back and be able to connect with those who are still without their home and those who are needing support right now. It was devastating to watch this horrible storm rip apart home and lives of our family and friends in our nation. I'm sure many of you have or at least have starting thinking about donating to the families in need! There are many ways you can help and remember any donation is a donation!
