Four weeks ago I had my official Miss Kansas Teen USA photo shoot with my Vanbros management! I got to work with the amazing Will Patterson, the lovely Lisa Proctor, and the wonderful Bryan Wood! They worked so hard to make my photo shoot fun and easy! They are a dream team and made it an experience and a day I will never forget! Lisa is such a great makeup artist and Bryan an awesome hair stylist! I am excited to see how the pictures turned out! Will’s pictures are always wonderful, so I can’t wait to see them! I’m looking forward to working with them all again! Also - I GOT MY RING! Woo Woo! I have been waiting for this sweet ring since the day I won!! Now I finally have it:)
Since my last blog I worked at the Saint Mary’s Soup Kitchen. I started volunteering at St. Mary’s in 7th grade, and still go there every now and then to help out! The director, Mike, does an awesome job! I got to make food and serve it to the Kansas Citians who come by for their meals. It is always such an awesome experience to see the joy on people’s faces when they get a good meal! My favorite part is to see the groups of people who come together to prepare a meal for those in need. Everyone is so appreciative of the work put into the meals served. I love all the “Thank you” and “God bless you” comments I get! It is just an amazing experience and everyone should at least go down to a soup kitchen and do it once! To get involved with the Saint Mary’s Soup Kitchen of Kansas City call (913) 281-5638 and talk to Mike! It is located at 645 Nebraska Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas 66117! Please go down and volunteer at least once - it is an awesome experience you won’t regret!!On another note, PLEASE go to this link: http://www.curesearchwalk.org/faf/home/default.asp?ievent=492731&lis=1&kntae492731=75DABBBEC8D64929ADAEE4DB4E72B721&login=t, and donate to the "Warriors for Ross" team as we participate in the Cure Search Walk for Children’s Cancer! It would mean a lot to me and to so many young people who are fighting cancer!! :) This is a walk that I will be doing with all the other Vanbros titleholders and the Vanbros team on the 21st of April! We are trying to raise as much money as possible, so please help contribute to our cause! :)
