Miss Crow Wing County International 2014: Whaaaaaat....time flies!

My lanta it has been a while since I have blogged! So I will do my best to catch you up. Here we go.
On the Forth of July, it was on an eventful day! wow. First I did the Crosby parade and I loved that one the most because I seen the most people that I knew and they cheered for me, which I didn't even expect! SO appreciate that btdubs (btw in my language haha). IT was so stinkin' hot too but luckily I had a few hour break before the Brainerd parade! First while we were waiting, I seen my buddy Lizzie! Oh how I love that lil chick! I seen her after the parade too. We were at the same stop light and stopped side by side...so not planned by us haha....and we were like 'I'll call you' doing the phone sign with pinkie and thumb! :P Just before I went out the parade directer came up and shook my hand and said thank you for coming to the parade & the little miss & mister pageant. That so impressed me and made me feel appreciated and honored. Then this older fella said to me you have the whitest dang teeth! I was clean as I said this he used the other dang word that is inappropriate to say at this time. :) Then a younger fella said to me you have the whitest teeth...do you use white strips?! HAHAHA that seriously made me laugh the rest of the day! Oh and then a really younger fella shot me the hand guns like hey good lookin'. That really made my day. Cutest little guy. I did it back to him! My favorite part of parades is getting to see everyone in the community but I love to give the little kids special attention. I will give them a special wave that is just directed to them. Just to make them smile and hopefully have a better day.

After the Forth, I had a couple parades in Garrison & Nisswa (i believe ;) ). Then I was also co-directing the Miss Crosby-Ironton Pageant! That was so awesome to help out with. Thank you to Jill for letting me help you out and having memories I will always cherish! The ladies that competed did so AMAZING! They are so near and dear to my heart!

So this is so not for attention purposes but to make you laugh and smile to show that even a person with a title is so not perfect or special from any other in anyway! I got the honor of presenting Bailey, Miss CI 2012, with her portrait and I did a little speech. Well before we even went out on stage I told her that we should do something funny like hug each other and just cry and say don't leave I don't want you do go! Well God had another plan in mind which was funnier may I say. So we head over to the picture and Bailey moved her dress out of the way so I didn't fall...well call me Gracie Lou Freebush (Miss Congeniality movie) because I beefed it on stage. Knee, arm, & butt hurt a few days after. But I didn't want to cry on stage that would be even more embarrassing. So anyone that knows me knows that I love to make anything into a comedy situation if it gets awkward & such. So I am trying to get up and when I do I did the 'SUPERSTAR' move! Made everyone burst out laughing! Then the emcee, Brad, handed me my shoe by saying your glass shoe Cinderella or something like that! That made the whole place blow up! Would not change that moment in my life for anything! Love it.

Then after the pageant I got to go to Crosby Park with the new royalty and we judged the loon calling contest and hot dog eating contest. Also we took pictures on the Scorpion Snowmobiles thanks to Randy for doing so! They turned out so awesome! The ladies looked so dang b-e-a-utiful! I looked pretty snazzy I guess haha!

Now I am prepping for Miss Minnesota International & going back to school to DeVry University. I will do my best to blog more and keep you all updated! God Bless. Below I will post pictures from events I talked about and that I didn't talk about in this blog! :)

Love always,
