Miss Colorado Coed 2012

I was so proud of all my clients this past weekend at the Colorado Miss American Coed Pageant! Several young ladies won or placed, but even if they didn't, I am still so proud that they each did their best!

I am so proud of my clients who are the outgoing queens. Kristen did a wonderful job as Miss Colorado Coed! She was a great roll model for all the younger queens.

Ashley has grown into such a beautiful and kind young lady. She did an amazing job as Miss Colorado Teen. She even inspired her younger sister as she competed this year.

I just love and I am so proud of all these young ladies. I have known them all for years. Even though Alina (Center Right) is not one of my personal clients, she has attended my workshops and taken diligent notes from everyone she meets. She is also a beautiful young lady, inside and out.

Ashley has been my client for over a year now. I am so proud of her 4th place in the Pre-Teen division. It was one of the toughest age groups! She was not only an amazing competitor but a true example of good sportsmanship.

Remember I said that Ashley inspired her sister? Well, here she is! Galacia was crowned Miss Centennial State Sweetheart! She worked really hard this year and it paid off!

If ever there was an example of persistence it would be embodied in this young lady. This was her 10th year competing in the Coed system. Although she made queen's quart in previous years, she had not won. She had one coaching session with me and took first runner up. This year she purchase one of my packages. Her hard work and dedication paid off with the crown! I am pleased to present your Miss Colorado Coed, Bekah!

Miss Colorado USA 2011

I attended the Miss Colorado USA Pageant to support the amazing young women who compete in this system. Congratulations to my client, Marybel Gonzales, the newly crowned Miss Colorado USA!!! I am so proud of you! You are a special young lady with a wonderful story to share.

Of course, every winner has an amazing team behind them. Angelique (L),her sister, was her stylist and her mom (R) was there to support her every step of the way.

The passing of the crown is always bittersweet. Blair has done such an amazing job and I want to congratulate her on becoming Glamour Magazines top 20 women in America!

Congratulations to Victoria Korthuis, who received the honor of 3rd runner up for Miss Teen Colorado USA! Although she is not my client, I have known this young lady for several years. She is a wonderful and gracious competitor.

 Ashley Schuett attends the same high school that my children attend. I have watched her grow and mature over the past few years. Her heart is huge!

Micayla Keely is a fun pageant girl! She loves to try new experiences and is pretty much fearless. I wish her the best of luck at her pageant this month! Watch for all these fabulous young ladies in the future!

Coed National Workshop

I was so honored to be asked to speak at the Colorado Coed workshop to prepare the state queens for the national pageant coming in November. I shared about interview skills, mental preparedness and that all important circle turn. This is a fabulous bunch of young ladies. Deonne (r) is a wonderful friend and dedicated to the Colorado Coed Pageant!

I am so proud of Kristen. I coached her for the Colorado Coed pageant where she won her state title. She is a busy young lady and still makes time to volunteer and prepare for nationals. She is a true queen!

Colorado Coed Kick Off Party

Although I was not going to make the whole weekend for the Miss Colorado American Coed, I was able to stop by the Kick Off party for the weekend. I was able to catch up a bit with outgoing queen, Chelsi Rose. She is an amazing young lady. I look forward to following what she does next.

Congratulations go out to two of my clients, Kristen Littlepage who won Miss Colorado American Coed and Ashley Shea who won Miss American Coed Junior Teen! Way to go ladies!

Colorado Coed Party

 I was so honored to be asked to attend the "good luck" party for the girls going to Coed Nationals over Thanksgiving break. They were so excited to do a fashion show for us so we could see all their outfits one last time.

 Deonne and Lize both have worked hard this year to make the Colorado Coed experience a wonderful one.

 What I love about this picture is the love these girls have for each other. They truly care for one another. Good Luck, girls!!!

I love Deonne!! She is an amazing lady with a huge heart. She is a terrific director for the Colorado Coed Pageant. I am so blessed to be a part of this amazing group of women!

Colorado Coed Fundraiser

What could be better than pageants and pizza? I attended the Colorado Coed fundraiser at CiCi's Pizza. There I met up with Kayla(R) and Ariel(L), two of the Coed queens. They were so excited to be there.

This is how I get my boys to support pageants, promise them food. We had wonderful food and even my 17 year old left feeling full. That is a difficult task. Thanks Coed girls for such a fun fundraiser.

2010 Miss Colorado American Coed Pageant

This past weekend, I had the honor of emceeing the Colorado Coed pageant. Deonn Wiess is the fabulous director and friend who invited me. Here we are at check in on Friday.

Here are all the fabulous outgoing queens. I have had a wonderful time getting to know these amazing young ladies over the past year. We made several appearances together with Chaplain Rourk.

 These beautiful women were the optional judges on Saturday. (L-R) Dianna-Lynne Wells, Michele Wegner and Erin Feltes. They had the difficult task of judging the talent, modeling, acting, speech, photogenic, best sponsor letter and best artist.

I couldn't resist a picture with my dear friend, Erin. Yes we are joined at the hip and now we dress to match!

Saturday night was the evening gown preliminary and the announcement of the winners of some of the optional competitions. These are the lovely "J-Bells". Jamie Bell and Jessica Bell.

I loved getting to know all the contestants. I certainly think that any one of these beautiful young women could wear the crown well. I am so glad I was not a judge!

Sunday was spent in rehearsals for the big finals night. This crew kept me on my toes and looking good on stage. Many times, the backstage people are never seen. I wanted to say "Thank You" to this amazing and talented group! Thank you Candice, Kip and Mark!

After the show, I had a chance to catch up with my sister queens. (L-R) Eryn Christiansen, Miss Teen Colorado International 2010, Tracy Register, Miss Colorado International 2010 and Emily Schlehuber, Miss Teen Colorado International 2009. What a fabulous weekend full of wonderful memories!
