Meet Me in St. Louis

May 9

We switched it up a little bit and the Lake board came to St. Louis to work this weekend! I started my morning with the toughest mock interview I've ever had in my life, but what a great prep for Miss Missouri! I owe a big thanks to my parents for organizing the interview, and to Tim, Edie, Danielle, and Tommy for sitting on the panel, and for their time, questions, and feedback.

After the mock, we were treated to lunch by Tim at Old Hickory Country Club. Fun fact: my sister and I both used to work at Old Hick, where we were mistaken for twins on a daily basis. We shared the stories from when we worked there, like the time when our golf cart broke down in the middle of the back nine for two hours on my first day. Ahh, the memories.

Traditionally, we eat and then watch me try to dance, so this Saturday was no different. We headed up to Techniques Dance Studio where I modeled my new competition swimsuit, practiced my modeling, and performed my talent for everyone.

Thanks to everyone who took part in the day - Wendy, Charlie, Mom, Dad, Jenna, and most importantly, Missy!! I don't know what I would do without all of your help and support!
