Here She Comes

Okay, I've tried my best to keep it a secret. I feel like I'm just going to burst if I don't let people know. And if I'm going to tell somebody, I might as tell everybody, right? Especially since a lot of you will probably find out on your own. So here goes......




Guess where I'll be June 19-20?

That's right. At the Crowne Plaza Redondo Beach & Marina Hotel competing in this.


(Did you guess already Julia? Remember the tape at your wedding? It must have been a foreshadowing. Too bad now I've got a post-nursing bosom to deal with!)


I've always wanted to be in a pageant. No, I'm not America's Next Top Model, but I'm no dog either! And if I can wear a swimsuit to work all those years at Jan Thomas, you know I can do it on a stage in front of a camera...


{biting fingernails}


I even had a dream last night, and guess what???

Wouldn't that be crazy if I actually won?

Kennedy's been helping me with my princess wave, and I've been so blessed to have Kaitlyn here to babysit while I'm searching for the perfect dress tick tock tick tock. Have you ever tried to find a stilleto in a size 11? No small feat (get it- "feet"? Don't worry, stand up won't be my talent!)

Justin is behind me 110%, but as we get closer to this whole thing, I'm trying not to freak out. Besides the 200 squats I'm doing everyday thank you physical therapy, what else should I be doing to prepare? Help me ladies - any advice???
