I have managed at least 1 appearance per week this past month! Sometimes, more than 1! It is such an honor to get invited to participate in great events and for great causes!
I was an invited model at Johnathan Kayne's 2009 Evening collection line! I also participated in the launch of his new doggie couture line Kayne9! I came home with a new baby--Griffin is a 4 pound chorkie--Adorable!
I was also an invited model at the Dillard's Winter fashion show held here in Wichita. I had the privilege of melding with Rachel Murphy, Mrs. KS US 2008 and Sierra Scott (from It's all Good).
I participated in the March of Dimes Chef Auction and helped raise over $70,000 for preterm babies! This is dear to me as Kody, our 5-year old, was born 4 weeks early and spent 11 days in the NICU. While there, he was administered surfactant (a drug that is a direct result of March of Dimes research).
I was an invited presenter at the FCCLA fall conference (Family, career, and community leadership academy) and presented to over 50 teen leaders from across KS about leadership styles.
I was also an invited "celebrity reader" at Valley Center's Wheatland Elementary school. Miss Addington's 5th grade class invited me to come read to them during Read Week! The funnest thing...Miss Addington is a former student of mine from WSU!
Most recently, I was a judge at the Miss Augusta and Miss Butler County pageants. Some great gals competed! Congrats on a job well done!
