Colorado and Wyoming Galaxy Pageant

I had a wonderful time at the CO/WY Galaxy pageant. I was able to attend with my dear friends Tiffany and Shannon. Shannon brought her step-daughter, Taylor. She is a beautiful young lady. I wonder when we will get her into pageants?

L-R Jessica and Erin are both 2009 Colorado Galaxy queens. As Mrs. Colorado International, I had the honor and fun of making several appearances with both of these fabulous ladies. They are both dear friends now. Jessica was also Mrs. Colorado International 2007.

I met several visiting queens. Yolanda Makel is the reigning Ms. Galaxy. She is so transparent and genuine!

The reigning Miss Wyoming International is Alyssa. I am so excited for her to attend International!

Brandi is Ms Essence. She was the co-host for the evening. What a gracious lady!

Congratulations to my friend E-Dee for winning Ms. Colorado Galaxy!

Congratulations to my dear friend Brenda for taking first runner up to Mrs. Colorado Galaxy. She also is a Mrs. Colorado International queen.

RaeJean is the director of this quality pageant. She has done an amazing job of putting together a fun and fair pageant.

I was there to support two of my clients, Tanya (L) and Sybrina (R). Good job ladies!

A huge congratulations to client and friend, Tanya, the new Mrs. Colorado Galaxy!!! All your hard work and following hours of advice paid off!! Now to get you ready for the Mrs. Galaxy Pageant!!

We all met at Old Chicago's Pizza for an after party. After a long night, it was wonderful to kick off my shoes with outgoing Miss Colorado Galaxy, Amanda. She has done an amazing job as a title holder!

Colorado and Wyoming Galaxy 2010

Last Saturday found Jennifer Nackerude, Mrs. Colorado American Queen 2010, and myself on the long drive to Cheyenne, WY for the Colorado and Wyoming Galaxy 2010 Pageant. We had a great time getting to know each other better on the long drive there and back. She is a gifted young woman with a very long list of accomplishments.

Upon our arrival, we went out to dinner with the ever lovely, Emily Schlehuber, Miss Teen Colorado International 2009. It is always wonderful to get together and catch up on life happenings, even if it has only been a few weeks.

Of course, one of the biggest reasons I went was to support my pageant friend, Erin Feltes, Mrs. Colorado Galaxy 2009. She was so gracious and poised on the stage. What a wonderful end to an amazing year.

Jessica is one of those pageant friends that we have become close for so many reasons. I first met her when I competed at Mrs. Colorado. Then she was a great help as I prepared to go the Mrs. International because she herself was 3rd runner up at Mrs. International as Mrs. Colorado International 2007. I must say, Jessica really rocked the stage on her last night as Miss Colorado Galaxy 2009.

The beautiful Brenda Baecker, Mrs. Colorado International 2008, was competing for the Mrs. Colorado Galaxy 2010 title. She was so graceful on the stage. Congratulations on first runner up!

This lovely young ladie is Maria Henderson. Jennifer was her pageant coach. Maria represented herself and community beautifully. Remember her name, you will see more of her in the future.

Colorado Galaxy Pageant

Saturday night I had the honor of representing the Colorado International Pageant at the Colorado Galaxy Pageant. I was there to encourage two friends, Jessica Smith who was Mrs. Colorado International 2007 and Erin Feltes. Jessica won the Miss division and Erin won in the Mrs. division. Although Erin was up against two seasoned pageant veterans and one took most of the individual awards, she won the crown. It was good to see that the judges were looking for a total package. Congratulations ladies!
