Eight days to go ~

The pageant is only 8 days away and I am ready and excited to represent Spokane.  For anyone still interested in attending there are tickets available that can be purchased at the door.  My one word of caution is show up early as they are going fast.

Stay tuned to my facebook during the events beginning next Thursday for updates.

Thank you to all for the support during this journey. 

Veteran's Day

Thank you does not seem enough for all the men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country.  To members of my family, my friends, and co-workers among the active and retired military community please know you are appreciated more than words can say.

My thoughts go out to all the families who have been impacted by the sacrifice of your loved ones.  While the official day of celebration and remembrance fall's on this Friday, November 11th please know the combined prayers of a country occur each and every day.

Thank you for your service ~

Crowns for Kids

Yesterday afternoon I was honored to participate in the 2011 Crown's for Kids to benefit Children's Miracle Network and the Miss Spokane Scholarship Fund.  The event kicked off with an official welcome from our MC for the afternoon tea and fashion show our own local beauty queen and celebrity Angela Monson.  Joining me for the afternoon fashion show were current and former royalty from the local or regional organizations. 

Glamarita supplied my unique handcrafted formal gown and Park Lane Jewelry provided the beautiful blue earring, necklace, and bracelet combination.   Thank you Cheri Moore for organizing this amazing event and allowing me to be a part of the afternoon.

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.
