Hi again...

It is the middle of the school day and I am blogging!  I am using my time wisely! 

I went to my first pageant practice with my pageant sisters.  It was so great to see all of them.  Tina is right...keeping a journal is very important.  I always forget what I do.  While we were at practice we made 3 tie blankets for the children at the University of Iowa Hospitals.  We also brought in cans to help with a food drive that Ciara is doing. 

This weekend I am going to be helping Kylie White with selling raffle tickets to kids who want a chance to ride with Santa.  Then it is the Festival of Trees Parade.  I can not wait to see everyone again.  I am practicing for the Festival of Trees performance next Friday!  I am going to try tapping.  I am always getting in trouble by my mom because I am always tapping around the house.  Then Saturday I will be attending the Burlington Lighted parade.  This is my favorite parade. 

My school is almost done helping Flickinger center.  We are now having a coin war to help raise the funds that are needed!  I hope it goes well.  I would like to see them raise $300 or more! 

I am signing off... Oh..it was nice to see Pauli and others at the Miss Eastern Iowa Pageant!  The theme was patriotic and it was really neat! 

Make a difference!
Dream big...
