One week until Miss Missouri week!

              I cannot wait to see my good buddy & reigning Miss Missouri, Sydney Friar in just ONE WEEK! I can only imagine the many emotions she is experiencing as her whirlwind year is coming to a bittersweet close. I know I can speak for my hometown and Cedar County when I say we could not be more proud to claim Miss Missouri as one of our own. Sydney has been an amazing representative for our state and for the Miss Missouri Program. It's really quite difficult to explain how I feel other than to say, Sydney, you ROCK!
          I am so excited to experience my last trip, as a Miss Missouri contestant, to Mexico Military Academy a.k.a. "summer camp". I owe so much to Mexico for how I've grown through the Miss Missouri Organization. I love it! :)



Sydney and I having a pep-talk during Miss Missouri week 2011. It must have been a good one! ;)





Friends don't let friends say cheese with food in their teeth. :D
