I have had an extremely busy weekend. Saturday afternoon, my family and friends gathered to celebrate my sister's graduation from college. Right after this, I raced home, changed clothes, loaded up my car with all of my pageant things, and drove to the Akron Zoo for Princess and Pirate's Night. I invited Sarah Eash, Cuyahoga County's Outstanding Teen, and she brought her sister queen Allison Goodwin, Miss Cuyahoga County.

We had a great time signing autographs, looking at the animals, taking pictures, and playing with the children.
I left the zoo and jumped in my car to drive to Cincinnati to meet Kally Addis so we could leave for St. Louis for Miss Midwest Captivating. We made good time and arrived at our hotel around 5am CST. I took a shower, was in bed around 5:30am, and woke up around 8am to start getting ready for the pageant. We arrived at the Franklin Room at 10:40am, and from there on, the day went pretty fast.

I had my interview, which went really well. I enjoyed talking to all of the contestants. MTV was filming an episode of "Made," and I was really impressed by the hard work Angie Tozer, former tomboy turned pageant contestant, had done. I also secretly have a crush on her coach :).

When the pageant was all said and done, I had made the Top 3 finishing as 1st runner-up and evening gown winner. As soon as the pageant was over, we packed up the car and drove straight back to Cincinnati arrive around 6am EST. Then I drove back to Akron. Needless to say, I'm still tired, but it was a great weekend!
