May has officially landed



The first full weekend in May hit with a vengeance.  The Spokane Jr. Lilac parade kicked off our Saturday complete with rain, sun, and wind all within a 5 minute span.  As promised I did my duty and entered the parade route in an attempt to gain pictures as my daughters band came in to view, traveled past us, and then on final shot as they continued on the route.  Yes, that gentleman in the bright yellow shirt and rather interesting pants is the very talented band teacher.  My daughter would be the one in the multi colored pants, black shorts, and purple coat (thank you grandma for making those crazy pants really work). 

This week continues to be busy as the Bowl for Kid's Sake event kicks off on Thursday at Valley Bowl.  I hope you join me in supporting this amazing organization. 

Saturday we are back on the parade route for the Otis Orchards community parade followed by a whirlwind trip to Moses Lake to prepare for our production number over Memorial weekend. 

Stay tuned as it is going to get exciting as we begin the summer and officially kick off pageant preparation. 

Enjoy the sun!

About Me

My photo
Spokane, Washington, United States
Growing up in a small rural community in Eastern Washington allowed me to discover and grow into the woman you see now. I was born on March 4, 1965 in the Othello hospital and 18 years later graduated from Othello High School ~ go Huskies! I am now a wife, mother, and grandmother. I am deeply committed to emotional and physical health and work diligently to strengthen both my mind and body through exercise. I am a graduate of Whitworth University ~ go Pirates, and Gonzaga University ~ go Zags! My passion is focused on mentoring the youth in our communities by showing them the power of critical thinking and authentic leadership. By applying the principles of emotional intelligence we can successfully arm our youth with the tools to move our global community to the next level. I am currently involved with Big Brothers & Big Sisters as well as HOBY. Both of these organizations share my passion for youth leadership in the community. In addition to youth leadership I am involved with Vanessa Behan's Crisis Nursery. I urge you to view the links I have provided so that you may learn more about these special organizations.
