Swimsuit Competition! Thank you Rebecca Carington!!
Costume! I loved representing BSU Football!!!! GOOO Broncos!!
Out of 16 Beautiful Amazing Woman I got in the Top 6. It was a wonderful weekend and I had so much fun. I also got an award for the most years married. Ron and I loved getting this award!!I felt honored to have gotten to know so many wonderful woman and again
get to know even more about myself.
On April 22nd I celebrated reaching a goal of 100 pounds of weight loss. Reaching this goal right before the pageant was wonderful! I thank my sponsor and wonderful trainer Rebecca Carington for getting me in the best shape I have ever been in. You are not only my trainer you are such a wonderful friend!
Thank you all for your support and love. I am blessed to have so many
friends that care about me.
Today I received a call from a local school. It was a counselor asking me if I would come and be a part of their career day. I will be doing Mock Interviews with the youth and also be a motivational speaker giving a speech on setting goals and how to keep the goals you set. I love the trickle down affect of doing pageants as this sweet lady watched the pageant the other night and heard my story. Truly it is a blessing in my life to do the best I can to help others on my path through life. :-)
