Great Weekend

Being Interviewed by the University Daily Kansan

Travis Releford

       





  This weekend was so much fun! It started out on Saturday, when Gentry and I made an appearance at the KU game! It was an absolute blast! We were introduced on the big screen during one of the timeouts! During halftime and after the game we took pictures with so many people who were there. It was so cool to have people come up and ask for pictures with us! After the game a journalist from the University Daily Kansan Newspaper interviewed us about the Miss Kansas and Miss Kansas Teen USA pageants. We told her about the pageant and what we have been doing in our community. Following the interview, we were able to go meet some of the players! I had pictures taken with both Conner Teahan and Travis Releford! It was a really fun night and I am glad that I got the chance to do that, especially since I am planning to attend KU next year!! Oh, and KU won :)





With Tony Bowls:)

      On Sunday I got up at 6:30, got my White Chocolate Mocha from Starbucks, and headed over to the Overland Park Convention Center to help check in girls for the first of 3 shows for the Natalie M. Foundation Fashion Show! The shows were a lot of fun! I got up on stage and talked to a room full of people about Vanbros and how they can get involved with the pageants and Donald Ross Elliott III Foundation. I also participated in all 3 shows, modeled some beautiful Tony Bowls dresses and wore some amazing jeans from Svica. I signed some autographs for some of the cutest little girls! It was such a long day, but a wonderful event to be involved in. All of the money raised by ticket sales for the shows will go to schools in the Kansas City area. So many girls came from all over Kansas City to model in the show in support of their schools. Afterwards my mom and I went out to eat at Red Robin with some of the other models in the show! Unfortunately I started to feel like I was coming down with a cold through the day, but I wouldn't trade the weekend for anything! Thank you so much Natalie M. for having me in the show. It was an awesome thing to be part of!! The designer, Tony Bowls, flew in for the event and was there to watch the girls wear his gowns on the runway and gave each girl a rose on stage... at all three shows!! He is such a sweetie and I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet him!

This little girl was adorable!!!
