My heart is so full as I write this blog! I am just so thrilled to tell you all that my coronation was a night filled with a room full of people! We not only ran out of tables and chairs for people to sit but it was standing room only! I have been blessed beyond measures by the people that not only came but showed their support for me! I never knew that I was so loved and blessed with such an amazing community, family, and friends until the night of my coronation! I said so many hello’s and signed so many autographs for my friends and fans here at home! I want to thank everyone who was able to come out and also thank everyone who donated items and their time to help me! I could not have done it without any of you! Last week I was honored to speak at my hometown church where I got to share my story of success! Not all of you may know this but I had to overcome many obstacles on my journey to the Miss Rodeo USA title! I did not own my own horse for almost four years! Thankfully I never gave up and was even able to win my last three local rodeo queen titles on borrowed horses! I have been blessed to learn the life lesson of “Hard work does pay off.” During my speech at the church service I spoke of how my obstacles may have got me down and feeling bad but I never threw in the towel and I never gave up hope! My faith is strong and my will is just as strong! I hope that if you ever have a dream and the will to chase it, that you do so! There are so many wonderful things in the world to accomplish and God will always stand by you. Whatever you are meant to do in life and whoever you are meant to be you will be and you will do! How does one pack to be gone for an entire year? Please, if you know how this is done I want to know! I spent the entire day not only picking up after a successful coronation but I also packed my life into totes to be gone for the entire year! I am just so thrilled and a little nervous that I may have forgot to pack somethings! Hopefully nothing to important! Haha! I will most certainly miss my family, friends, community, and my farm, but I know this year will be one for the books! In sixty years or more I am sure I will be forgetful but I bet I won’t forget the memories that I make during my year as Miss Rodeo USA 2019! While packing for my year long adventure I managed to find several pairs of shorts, because summer is finally coming!!! Here in Iowa it has been a very long, and very cold winter. I am more than ready to go rodeo! Speaking of rodeo, my first stop is Brunswick, Georgia! Oh I just can’t wait to get there and meet everyone! I have heard such wonderful things about this rodeo and the week that I will get to spend there! I hope to see some familiar faces and if I don’t that's ok to because in rodeo, well there are no strangers! Rodeo really is one big family! The last few weeks have been so busy working out my schedule and marking down when I will be where! Please keep up with me on all and any social media accounts as I will be busy, busy! Well I hate to leave you so soon, but I have to finish packing and get ready to hit the road for my first adventure! Stay tuned! There are so many exciting things coming your way! Also check out a couple of my photos below from my winter photo shoot with the amazing T.P. Creations! More to come I promise!!
