I had such an awesome time in Kansas City last weekend!!  It was so great to see the amazing Vanbros Team and my fabulous Vanbros sisters.  The photo-shoot was a complete success ! I know everyone will end up with great shots.  We had a great time touring Kansas City; although, we got a little lost and almost ran out of gas- we finally made it to The Plaza. The shopping was incredible and the food was fantastic! Lakynn and I splurged a little at The Cheesecake Factory, there is no way we could leave without having  a few bites of cookie dough cheesecake and red velvet cheesecake! Lol!  We were all thrilled to recieve our beautiful crown rings (which I havent taken off), YBF makeup (a girl can never have to much in her makeup bag), and a watch to make sure we are always punctual! We really enjoyed the VIP treatment. 

In the words of Willie Nelson we were "On The Road Again" bright and early Sunday morning.  We traveled home to Arkansas by way of Oklahoma City to meet with the amazing Brian Attebery at Results Fitness and Nutrition Center.  He customized a great fitness and nutrition program for me.  I appreciate him being so motivational as well as inspirational!  On the way home we stocked up on a LOT of protein so I can build some big guns like his lol!

Last Thursday I started the weekend early in Little Rock with a photo-shoot for Delta Trust Bank.  I can't wait to see how they turn out!  Friday I helped chaperone my sister Kenzie's birthday party. We started the night with a scavenger hunt.. I drove 8 giggling girls all over town as they sang Justin Beiber VERY loudly and really off key hahaha! My mom had the other 8 girls but Team Mary-Kate won! Yay!!  Later we arrived back home for what was supposed to have been a sleepover... but there was not much sleeping going on. I'm truly surprised our stairs didn't collapse from all 16 of them running up and down, up and down ALL night!  I think they finally crashed around 6am.  After sleeping a few hours it was time for the Zumbathon.  It was held to raise money for The American Heart Association.  GO RED!!  What a great way to spend the day!

Looking forward to emceeing the Crowns for Cancer pageant in Warren, Arkansas this Saturday!  This could be interesting because my 2 younger sisters Madison and Makenzie will be competing! I'll keep you posted :)  XOXO

Happy Valentines Day!

WOW!! What an amazing couple of weeks it has been! Last week we actually got snow in South Arkansas! I absolutely could not believe it. Valentines Day was a blast with the students at Wilmot Elementary! It was so awesome reading and getting to know the students as well as helping with the Valentine party! Everyone LOVED seeing the crown! Even the boys as you can see! Haha!

Today I went to North Little Rock Veterans Hospital and attended the Sweetheart Luncheon! It was so great getting to know and being able to honor some of our amazing veterans!  Photos of the luncheon will be posted soon. I'm looking forward to seeing my Vanbros sisters this weekend in Kansas City!!
