So, this is another departure from my blogging-for-blood work, however, it was an incredibly busy weekend filled with family, friends, and lots of driving!After practicing for a year, my daughter had her dance recital. Performing in a Jazz routine and a Lyrical routine, she was able to display her growing talent, and while she continues to ask about joining the competition dance team, I'm just so excited to see her passion begin to spark. She was absolutely beautiful on stage ~ I'm certainly a very proud momma!
After the recital, we had to make good time to get to Williamsburg in order to catch the Mrs. Virginia US Pageant. My dear friend, Darlene Deeben, was competing - we have known each other for years and what better way to show some love than to cheer loudly from the audience!
With a visit from one of my closest friends, Angela Smith, we cheer loud and made sure that our "Feisty" friend knew we were there for her. In the end, Darlene, did not win, but more importantly she is getting ready to celebrate 25 years of marriage - that is better than any crown she could have won that night!
I was able to see old friends and make a few new friends. I always love my friends from the world of pageantry - after all, who else is going to understand that sparkles at any time of the day is completely appropriate?
Congratulations to the new Mrs. VA US 2010, Angela Whittle - enjoy your reign!
