Hello All!
My, my, my...It has been a looooong time since I have posted a blog. There is so much to fill you in on, I don't even know where to begin!
Right before Thanksgiving I cut off all of my hair! Now I am sporting a super short bob and I love it! My Thanksgiving was "stuffing" to say the very the least. The very next day (Black Friday) my entire family and I went shopping (One of my ALL TIME favorites hobbies!)
The second week of December, right after finals, my two friends from the Sweetheart Pageant came to visit me here in Sunny Florida! Well, in reality, it wasn't too sunny...it was rather cold, but to the two of them it was warm...considering they are from Kansas and North Dakota. For those of you that don't know or remember my older blogs, I went to the Sweetheart Pageant in September 2009. All of the first runners-up from each state are invited to Illinois to compete for a national title. I met Jaci Stofferahn (North Dakota) and Alex Miller (Kansas) at this pageant. It was so awesome to see these girls again, almost a year later! The three of us, along with some friends went out and about in Orlando.
Well, my winter break was most definitely a fun one! Christmas was absolutely wonderful! I spent it with my family and the day was filled with laughs, song, and lots of FOOD!!!
The night right after Christmas, my family and some friends hopped into my mom's big ole Red excursion and went on a road trip to West Virginia for some skiing at Snowshoe Mountain. What was supposed to be a 16 hour trip, became a 20 hour trip due to the huge snow storm that took over most of the Northeast! Fortunately, we made it safely to our destination and enjoyed 2 days of skiing. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I was skiing like a pro! I went down a black diamond called the "Widowmaker." The name alone should be enough of a description of how steep this slope was!
We returned from our trip just in time to ring the New Year with the rest of my family. Happy belated New Year everyone!
In two weeks, my sister and I will be competing for the titles of Miss Orlando and Miss Orlando's Outstanding Teen. This past saturday, we and a few of the other contestants went to a recording studio here in Orlando, to record a few lines of "We Will Rock You" for our opening number. It was the first time I had ever stepped foot in a recording studio before and I was in complete awe of the place! That night, my family celebrated my little cousin, Danielle's 6th birthday. All of the girls congregated in my aunt's bedroom to watch Miss America. Congratulations to our new Miss America, Teresa Scanlon!!! Oh and I must add, that I watched the Packers vs Falcons game wilst watching Miss America...Haha! Way to go Packers!!! I see the Superbowl in their midst!
Last, but certainly not the least, my parents celebrated their silver anniversary on the 14th! Twenty-five years! Last night, we had a big celebration as Maggiano's (A restaurant that I recommend to everyone!!!) We all had a blast!
I promise not to wait too long to post another blog!
Until then,
Kristina
