Miss Camila City Pageant- Prelim to Miss LA USA/Teen USA-judges and winners

Even though the month is not over I thought I needed to update! At one point I had NOTHING on my calendar and it seemed to magically POOF get real busy, real fast- which I love. Right after I returned home I was asked to judge the Miss Camelia City pageant a prelim for Miss LA USA and Teen USA- it was a great night and I can't wait to see the girls compete at the end of the month1 I had the wonderful opportunity to participant in the Diamonds and Champagne night to benefit the Acadiana Symphony Orchestra. This included a live jewelry auction, to which I doned a pair of 5 CARAT diamond earrings. I tried to convince Tim I needed them, but he wasn't buying- literally! A great time was had by all. Also in October I attended the " I'm a Good Kid Too" camp and recognition ceremony in honor of children who were making the right choices in life, despite their circumstances. It was a wonderful morning in Baton Rouge with the kids and several of the council women from that area. I was then asked to partake in the fashion show for Mosely and Hollard for Women at the Lafayette Decorators Showhouse- this boutique was gracious enough to sponsor my interview suit for Mrs. LA and Mrs. America! They are a fabulous store check them out! But what truly made this special was my Dad and Step-Mom are the builders of the beautiful home the style show was held at- plus my family was there! Lastly, I was honored to return home to Washington Parish and emcee the Washington Parish Fair Queens contest. There were 17 young ladies competing that night- it was a packed fair grounds on a beautiful fall night! What more could you ask for? I was able to spend time with my Mom and reminisce of days traveling as fair and festival queens- and see a few people I had not seen in probably a good 10 years! I have one more appearance this month and the rest of my time is spent with Gabe and work! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
