Busy Weekend :)




This Friday I came home from school to meet Megan from the Wedding Embassy. Phyllis, my mom, and I had a blast with Megan designing what my dress should look like. Megan is so talented and she is such a pleasure to be around. I really appreciate her sponsorship and the time she is putting in to help me.
I went back to school on Saturday morning to volunteer for Girls and Women and Sports Day. I, along with my dance team, taught about 50 little girls a dance to perform at the basketball game later in the day. It was so much fun!
Tonight I met my Litchfield County crew (except Maggie, we missed her!) at the Miss Fairfield/ Miss New Haven County Pageant. It was really an amazing show and Sonia Baghdady was a very entertaining emcee. Let me tell you, I would not have wanted to judge this pageant … all of the contestants were unbelievably talented, intelligent, and beautiful. Congratulations to Mary, Alyssa, Ashley, and Taylor… all well-deserved winners. They did amazing and I can’t wait for Miss Connecticut!

Miss Hamden/ Miss North Haven


This past weekend was the Miss Hamden/ North Haven pageant. The show was amazing and very entertaining to watch. Congratulations to Candice, Gretchen, Alyssa, and Haylee.. the newest title holders! They all were incredible.
As usual, it was always great to spend time with my Litchfield County family! When I am with them I always have the biggest smile on my face!! After the pageant, we all went to Chili’s to socialize more. Not a surprise, they sat us in the back of the restaurant because they must have known we were a talkative bunch. Maggie ordered a sandwich bigger than her face and Kirsten ordered macaroni and cheese from the children’s menu. We enjoyed our conversations so much that we stayed for quite a while… until the restaurant turned off the heat in an effort to get us out the door! I had a wonderful evening and I look forward to seeing everybody again.. which I’m sure will be soon.
I believe Brianna (my Litchfield County Diamond) told me at our Miss America Party that tomorrow (well I suppose it would be today seeing that it’s 2am) is her birthday! So I hope I’m not mistaken, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRIANNA and I will be thinking about you today.
Until next time,
Brittany
