This week I have taken a small break from you due to my hectic work schedule and all of the fun pageant things that I have been doing.
This summer I have had the opportunity to work a summer internship at Hometown Thread's as there Business Development and Marketing intern. I have learned a lot about the various of aspects of the business world. Some of the things I have done included coordinating sign displays, writing marketing plans, improving my customer service, and even working on a little personal selling. It has been an amazing experience and it has truly taught me about what aspect of marketing and design I would like to pursue in the future. Next, I have returned to my prior job at the law office. This job is filled with interesting moments that truly make my day and I work with some very friendly people also. In November of this year I will have worked at the law office for nearly four years!! Boy time sure has flown. This job has truly taught me about punctuality, organization, multi tasking, and how lucky I am to be able to just read and write. Working for a social security lawyer, some of our clients are in poor health and some are not even able to read or write. This job has truly been a humbling experience and made me feel lucky for life's little joys.
Pageantry. This past weekend I had the opportunity to journey to the Ohio American Coed pageant and to watch my friend and fellow Portsmouth girl, Emilee Lowe compete in the teen division. Coed will always have a special place in my heart as it gave me my pageant beginning. Emilee placed 2nd runner up in the teen division and she looked stunning onstage in her purple dress. Here is a picture of Emilee and I after the pageant festivities for the night came to a close:
The next picture is Amber Miller who is the reining Ohio Cinderella Woman. She is one of Greg's girls and his former Miss Portsmouth Outstanding teen. She is former Miss Ohio's Outstanding Teen. She is an incredibly sweet girl who looked stunning on pageant night. I hope to see her in October at the Miss Portsmouth Pageant!!
This past week I had the opportunity to stop by Kenzie's closet located in the downtown Cincinnati area. Just like any pageant girl, I have oodles of dresses that I can no longer wear and felt it fitting to donate them to such a worth while cause! I can not wait to get more involved in this organization once it comes Prom time.

Well folks, that's all for now. Please check back soon as I update you on my next fun filled adventure!

Ps. On a small side note, my former littler sister queen, Cecili Weber Miss Portsmouth's Outstanding Teen and now Miss Ohio's Outstanding Teen, is competing in Florida this week in the hopes of becoming the next Miss America's Outstanding Teen! She is an incredibly sweet girl and it was a complete blast having her as one of my little sister queens!! Below is a picture of Cecili and I at our send off party for Miss Ohio/ Miss Ohio's Outstanding Teen:
Ashley Miller is Cinderella Ohio Woman; her twin Amber competed at Ohio Coed and won Miss Buckeye State.
