Centennial HS Wrestling - 1/12/08

Early Saturday morning, I was invited to sing the National Anthem at the Centennial High School for a Wrestling match. It was fun and of course I got a picture with the Team!

(Thanks Kris for setting this up)

Pageant Baby Shower - 1/20/08

One dear pageant friend (and karaoke singing buddy:) of mine, whom I met while competing for the Mrs. MN America Pageant in 2005 FINALLY got pregnant and I was so happy for her that I just had to throw her a Pageant Baby Shower. Nothing fancy, but we had a nice little get together with some other wonderful pageant friends made over the years. It was terribly cold that day but we had some great appetizers at Olive Garden and great cake to fatten us up for the weather:) We are all so excited for Andrea and her husband and can't wait to hear all about life's interesting adventures when adding a kid to ones life:) Oh....and I almost forgot....it's going to be a BOY!!

Thanksgiving weekend was a lot of fun! It was the MN Teen and Miss USA Pageant and my first time coaching a contestant.

There were roughly 70 girls in the Teen and 50 some in the Miss. Very tough year for both groups! Everyone looked spectacular!

I was so excited for my girl Nicole. Considering she is very involved in sports and never having done a pageant before it was so amazing to watch her grow and to be a part of it all. She had a wonderful experience and was excited to make the top 15! I also got to see LOTS of pageant friends!!

Blog Update!!

Wow, it's been quite sometime since I've updated my blog....naughty, naughty of me:) Of course life has been busy with a 5 and 10 year old in school, sports, dance, myself working full-time, husband and his busy schedule as a police officer, plus we added another to the family. We now have a second Rat Terrier and her name is Zoey:) Lazlo our 2 yr. old male is adjusting and Zoey only being 5 mo. old is still learning lots.....like potty training!!



The whole family is really looking forward to 2008 and of course I have a few New Year Resolutions:)
