Fundraiser/Napa and Solano princess party!

This last weekend was another crazy one for this busy bee! After work I high tailed it to Lake County to work with my brilliant choreographer Sheila so we could put some finishing touches on my dance. If you would like to see the new and improved version, Alice and I are performing our talent's at the Dance Festival this coming weekend so pick up some tickets it's going to be a great show featuring dancers from all over the county!

Next stop was the "Taste of Italy" fundraising dinner for Miss Lake County. This was a fantastic evening with good food, great people and an amazing auction. Alice and I spoke for a little bit about our platforms and our year so far, then quickly changed into our talent outfits while our fabulous princesses did their dance. Alice and I got to be Vanna White for the evening which was really fun. We also had our fabulous auctioneer Rob Brown to make the auction even more fun, Rob has been a great supporter of the Miss Lake County Organization for a long time, and it doesn't hurt that I've known him since I was five.

 Speaking of people who have made an impact on me since I was five, many of you may already know that my dream of becoming Miss Lake County began when I was five and the current Miss Lake County was my babysitter. Pulling my inspiration from that my mom and I decided to make a princess basket for the auction with a coupon in it for a night of baby sitting from yours truly! I am so excited to spend an evening with Angie, and she was so excited she put the Cinderella crown that was in the basket right on!

Throughout the night I was also making plugs for a couple of other things that I'd like to talk about now just in case you missed it. As a Miss California Contestant I am trying to get as many ads into the Miss California program book as possible. This works to a business advantage because not only do you get state wide advertising, you also get an ad in the Miss Lake County program book so you get local recognition too! On top of all that greatness, you also get the satisfaction of knowing that the price of the ad goes into scholarships for me, and young women like me so that we can reach our educational goals. Contact misslakecounty@gmail.com for more information or send a message on the official Miss Lake County Facebook.

The other item I kept bring up over and over again is Lego's! I am doing a Lego drive so that the MDA Lego cabin stays fully stocked for years to come, especially with Lego people and wheels! I received some very generous donations on Saturday towards this cause but if you missed it don't worry that wasn't your only chance! This drive will be going until June 15th! If you would like to know where you can donate, or if you have a big donation you would like to have picked up, send an email to buildadifference@yahoo.com!

After all of that we had some official princess business to attend to! As you may have read already, when I am home in Lake County I spend a lot of time at the local nursing homes. It is such a rewarding appearance because I get to meet a lot of great people in a one on one situation and get to know them a little better every visit. We had a special guest at our fundraiser from Evergreen Healthcare, and I had the opportunity to make her an official Miss Lake County princess! We had such a blast crowning her and she was so excited!

The next day I had more princess time, but this time with the Miss Solano and Miss Napa princesses! I had the honor of being invited to their princess party at the lovely home of their fabulous directors Sara and Gabino. We had pizza, cupcakes, crafts and crowns. What more could a girl want?! I had such a blast and have some very fun ideas for the Miss Lake County princess party!

Miss Sacramento, Miss Napa, princesses, Miss Solano and I!
