On October 17th I traveled out to Austin Texas to compete in the Mrs. United America Pageant. As every one knows I'm taking a break from pageants for the next year or two to focus on starting my own family! So I decided to have one last hurrah and compete in Texas! I had such a great time all the ladies were so friendly and wonderful! Mrs. Annette is a lovely woman and a caring director and I am so glad that I went to her pageant! I love being involved in pageantry and constantly looking to update and better myself on stage and in interview, its my fun hobby and most importantly it allows me to bring focus to the BBBS organization! I was second runner up and I won the Ms Congeniality Award...how great is that :)
Enjoy the photo's :)
