Well ladies and gentleman, the time is quickly approaching for this gal to leave for Tucson, Arizona! As a full time working mother of two it's been quite a whirlwind preparing for Mrs. America. My family has been amazing!! All summer long I've been steadily working towards being well prepared for the next level of competition. This past week I had a little moment of "Oh, I have A LOT to do!" My family rallied and I gave them all a separate list, from picking up dry cleaning to going to the post office. My step-dad even took Ashley to get her new outfit for ballet! (I'm sure she was pleased with that one, he surely bought her more than I would.)
I huge shout out to my friends, family, co-workers, and queen sisters! You are amazing! Your excitement, encouragement and most of all love has made this journey even more special. I appreciate you more than you know.
