So I guess you could say I did it. I am 2nd runner up for  Miss Washington County. Now can you imagine if I would have made my routine up before the NIGHT BEFORE, or had someone help me with questioning, or even started losing weight before 3 weeks before, I could have possibly done better. I am pretty happy, totally shocked I wont lie, but I get a crown! I even had like three little girls come up to me and want me to sign their programs! How fun! Who would have ever thought I would have entered a pageant, let alone place, and sorta like it! Total shocker to everyone including my self! I couldnt have done it though with out KJ Leslie and Mom. They were a big help and support through the whole thing. Just so ya know girls, it not over, I still need help for all the parades and places I have to be now!  

Pageant

Okay, so this is sorta a crapy photo..... I dont wanna take the time to scan it into moms and send it to me and blah blah. These are all of us. Our Rock band shoot. Its been super fun until this week when I am super stressed because I just like 20 minutes ago made up my talent routine, talk about procrastination- ha.

This is a photo of the hair spray I bought today at wal-mart to not hold my hair in place, but my swimmer. talk about AWKWARD. If not me, then someone else will be spraying this hairspray onto my REAR, then placing my swim suit in its place.

Well tomorrow is Dress Rehearsal then saturday is the big day! I am excited and a little nervous all at the same time. Wish me Luck!

Pretty Perfect

So with in the last week of my life really like the last 5 days, I feel like life is going in the right direction. I feel there is a purpose for things and I am just overall happier. I like to wake up in the morning and get my day going, I feel like I am more patient with my nephews and just have a better outlook on things. Sorta like a weight has lifted from my chest and I can finally now breath. I am perfectly content leaving it all right where it all is right now. 

First Day

So, I have completed all my paper work, gone to the first meeting, and now, just finished a rock shoot for the pageant. I did what I was told and was "over the top." It was fun, rockin out on my backyardigans guitar. We did a photo shoot and shot a rock video and a surprise interview that I was not ready for at all! eekkk good thing they were very nice and worked with me a little bit, hope its not too embarrassing. but anyways here is a picture of the "over the top" look made possible by Leslie and Jan. Thanks to them I would have never pulled it off my self! :)

So, Gross

I was just informed that on average the human inhales 6 spiders a year while sleeping. EW I think I just might have night mares of spiders climbing down my mouth. I said GREAT now I wont be able to get a good nights sleep for the next 2 weeks, he said dont worry they are just baby spiders, ya that makes it SO much better. This is what I imagined when he said we eat spiders,

SICK. it makes me cringe every time I look at it! Just thought you should all know why I will have bags under my eyes for the next 10 years of my life, for the lack of sleep while I try to get over this nightmare someone instilled in me telling me I eat 6 spiders a year...........

he is here! Finally!

After many nights of "tonight is the night". After many, midnight checks, 6 am checks and lunch time checks. Pepper finally had her colt. Last night the night dad said "she will have it when no one checks on her." We are all pretty excited and he is the cutest one by far! Lucky Jeremy. Healthy little boy, with no name yet. We wanted to keep it in the 'spices' with momma pepper. Here is some I came up with we will see what jeremy decides : Clove, Coriander (cory), Juniper, Mace, Poppy Seed, Ramsons, Sassafras, Sesame, Tarragon, Tasmanian Pepper, Vanilla. 

Tas and Cory are my favorite. Mom likes Tasmanian also, because his mom is pepper so passing the name along.... all are good, just wish someone would decide already!
