Holiday Fun!

This time of year is wonderful, and allows us all to enjoy family and friends like no other time of the year. I was so honored to be Mrs. Arkansas International 2005, and had a wonderful year with my director, Bernee Thurow. Bernee has been a great friend and support to me since, and was so encouraging to me in my decision to try one last time for my dream job of Mrs. International. I wanted to do something special for her, and her contestants. This sunday I hosted a Christmas Tea for Bernee, and all her 2009 contestants. We had a fabulous turn out of about 25 lovely ladies, and enjoyed holiday goodies and great fellowship.

Later, we participated in AETN's "Arkansas International Night". We took pledge phone calls from donors who wished to support the great work that AETN/PBS does in our state and around the nation.

It was a great start to a lovely Christmas season!
