The Resolution Passed!!!!

On May 31st, 2011 I had the amazing opportunity to finally see my resolution pass personally on the House floor at our State Capital with special thanks to Michigan Representative Vicki Barnett!!! I sent the resolution in 8 months ago and about two weeks before the Miss Michigan pageant it finally came through!! It was surreal hearing the gaval hit the podium when "Michigan Osteoporosis Day" was finally passed and established!!! This was a personal victory for me to see this hard work rewarded, but an even bigger victory for the people of Michigan! Just knowing that I helped make a little bit of history in our state about osteoporosis has been very humbling and knowing that many people will recieve free bone density screening is an awesome feeling! On October 20th, 2011 we will officially have our very own Michigan Ostopeorosis Day! I couldn't have done it without Rep Barnett's help and I am eternally grateful for her assisatance in this matter and her friendship!!! I am now in the early planning stages fora huge state wide event in October and I can't wait to see it come to life!!! Details to follow!! :)

Memorial Day Parade!!

The annual Memorial Day parade and events is always a blast to be involved in!!! Some of the Miss Oakland County contestants and me started off the day by helping out at the Masonic Temple to serve our Farmington police officers and firefighters a pancake breakfast! After breakfast we joined the parade where I road in my dad's red corvette while the contestants road in the firetruck with the firefighters!! It was a gorgeous day out and the sun was really shining down on us for such an important day!!! After the ceremonies were concluded in the downtown park all of us went to lunch for hot dogs and to mingle with the residents of Farmimgton and Farmington Hills!!! Thank you to the contestants that took the time to come and help out! The MOC family really does appreciate that you were there to support such a wonderful cause and to support the pageant as well!!!

RW Threads Runway Show!!!

It was a very long trip to Gladwin, but worth every mile!! Spending the weekend in a luxury hotel was an awesome experience! I felt completely spoiled and loved every minute of it!! :) The food and accomodations was beyond anything I had ever experienced before and I would do it all again in a heartbeat! The purpose of the trip was to honor Katie LaRoche and raise funds for her platform work on Human Trafficking. As titleholders we were part of a team to model clothes from RW Threads (RW = River Walk) and we also entertained the audience by showcasing our talents! I was thrilled to sing 'Orange Colored Sky' and always enjoy performing for the public whenever I can!! Each of us modeled three different outfits and I LOVED all three of mine!! The hotel and resturant were so classy and the owners treated us to a delicious dinner! I felt so honored to be a part of this special occassion and the whole weekend is one I never want to forget!! 

Princess and Superhero day!!!

What a fun event on May 14th in Southfield!!! I had a blast hanging out with all of the little princesses and teaching them how to wave like a princess!!! It was great to see all of their dresses and costumes when they arrived that afternoon!!! The media was even there to support the event and having a safe enviornment for children to play at!! It was an honor to be one of their princesses for a day!!!
