3 days until Miss International!

Day 3:


The reason why I chose this picture was because it shows how much a role model I am to little girls. This little girls name is Noor and this was at my American Cancer Society Relay for Life event. Before I went up on stage I was stopped by our local newspaper and they asked for some pictures and to have someone with me. I immediately thought of Noor for the picture. I gave her a crown and made her a sash with her name on it. When the newspaper told her to come over to get a picture, you can say she was a little excited that she ran and threw me off balance. This event ran from 4pm-6am and at the end we raised $24,400 for the American Cancer Society. Staying up all night for a great cause is why this was one of my favorite events. Around 5am we had a wake up ceremony where we played music and I got to dance on stage. This was a great event, I met a lot of people, made a lot of friends, and got a lot of pictures! And I got to walk with my three friends Ashley, Steph and Pat who were on my team! <3

4 Days until Miss International!

For the 4 days left until I leave for Chicago each day I will post a picture of one of my favorite appearances thru my reign so far!!!

Day 4: 

I chose this picture because this was our "Christmas morning" with my new pageant family. With this being the first title I have held it meant a lot to me. The lovely ladies on my left and right are my pageant sister queens who I love dearly. Dawn my Mrs. is such an inspiration and I just love her family! And Kaitlyn my Teen is seriously the little sister I never had and wish I did! These ladies have made my reign so much fun and very exciting. Dawn is in Chicago as I type :) to compete for the Mrs. International title. Katie and I are not too far behind until we are in Chicago where I will compete for Miss International and Kaitlyn will be competing for Miss Teen International. Chicago better watch out for what Pennsylvania is going to bring!!! <3 I love these ladies from the bottom of my heart I can't put in words how much they mean to me. Good Luck to both of you. We will always be 2011 Sister Queens!!

 The house so far
 Where I was at all day!
 Women's Build team that I had the honor to work beside!
My crown and banner on lunch break! The hardware that I travel with!
 Let's just say I needed this picture :-)
Me up on the roof all day long, no ropes to hold me up, no safety nets! Just the women and men building side by side on a Habitat home!! Look at that pink hammer glitter :-)

This event was so thrilling!!! I was up on a roof ALL DAY LONG!!!! Got to work with a great group of ladies, and got a nice tan :-) Habitat is a great organization and I love being a committee member. I want to thank the whole team who helped me and taught me the construction skills that I used during the day!
