Columbia Jaycees' Holiday Parade

I was thrilled to be in the Columbia Jaycees' Holiday Parade in downtown Columbia last weekend.  It was a very cold morning but our new engraved black scarf's kept us warm! Thank you to Dave and Dawn Williams who organized this event and for giving us several opportunities to have our pictures taken with people in the community!  Thank you to my sister queens who shared in this event!  Megan, Hannah and Shade!

Children's Hospital Gala dinner

On Friday, November 4th I attended the Children's Hospital Gala dinner with my sister queens; Hannah, Megan, and Shade!  Also attending was Sydney Friar (Miss Missouri) and McKensie Garber (Miss Missouri Outstanding Teen).  What a wonderful evening to pay tribute to all the heroes that help Children's Miracle Network.  There were several awards given to people who truly make a difference. What an honor to be a part of this experience and see how special it was for the kids ! They got to be super heroes and have special super hero names which they loved!   There was also an auction which all proceeds benefited Children's Miracle Network. Thank you to my directors- Dave and Dawn Williams who made this possible for me to attend!
The next night we enjoyed watching the Miss Audrain pageant and cheering on the girls!  Congrats to the new girls and I can't wait to spend more time with you at State!

DQ and Children's Miracle Network




On Saturday, October 29th I enjoyed spending the day with my sister queen, Megan McWilliams Miss Boone County and Miss Metro St. Louis, Amanda Williams. Dairy Queen had a re-opening here in Kansas City and donated a portion of their proceeds to Children's Miracle Network. There were balloons, Halloween costumes, face painting and of course ice cream!  Thank you to Erin Manning a department manager for Children's Miracle Network for organizing this event. Thank you also to Dave and Dawn Williams directors of Miss Columbia-Boone County!  What a great day to ask patrons for donations and spread the word about CMN! Thank you to Monte and Shannon  Martello the new owners of Dairy Queen!
