Walk like MADD


Mothers Against Drunk Driving had a walk, and on April 21st I had the opportunity to staff the VIP Hospitality tent  that volunteers visited for refreshments and a quick break. The walk ended up raising 140,000 dollars to help hundreds of victims or drunk driving and their families. Loved meeting an talking to the volunteers! Thanks to MADD, and Miss Lynn James for involving me! The next Walk like MADD is at Ridgemar Mall in Tarrant County on October 13!

Denim and Diamonds

5:30 to 9
I was at Denim and Diamonds---once again selling raffle tickets!



I always have so much fun with my pageant family, even if I was the only Teen titleholder there!

There were so many great vendors there, I have to say... I HAD to indulge on some BBQ ribs!

Made some new friends, and reconnected with some old ones as well!

Thanks Miss Heather Bruce!

I attended DIFA's Toast To Life Gala, a charity benefit where all proceeds went to HIV/AIDS research to find a cure! Some other local title holders and I sold raffle tickets to the attendees, and ate some yummy food from the vendors there. we were on our feet all night, and let me tell you, my feet were NUMB after 3 hours of standing! But what a great night! Thanks Miss Bobbie for this opportunity!

Colonial Gardens Alzheimer Center Family Night

Hello Internet!




January 19th, 


I and some of my sister queens went to perform and mingle with the patients
at the Colonial Gardens Alzheimer Center Family Night (in Fort Worth)


And this was yet another amazing experiance, all made possible by MNTO, the Alzheimer patients there were so sweet!L









Turns out, one of the patients there, along with her daughter and close family, all knew Italian and said my pronunciation was great! 


(On a side note, when I competed with my Italian piece in Solo and Ensemble, I got a Superior rating, and a medal! Yay Italian!)




Elderly people are so interesting, but unfortunately are sometimes forgotten in our society of successful young people. Please be thankful for the elderly of your family (in good health, or not). They are such wellsprings of wisdom and advice!
