What has come and what has to come

So this week I have been in Mobile, Alabama! I am competing in the national distinguished young women finals! I am having the time of my life and meeting so many amazing girls! (49 to be exact) :) they have us jam packed every day with community events, outings, and rehearsals! 

Some of the things we have been doing include:

- openin ceremonies on the day we arrived in Mobile. Finals are such a huge deal here we get treated like celebrities! It is equivalent to the CWS in Omaha. 

This is me and my two roommates 

Cassidy from Maine, and Peryn from Mississippi 

We met the governor and were escorted and announced by state

 

While here we stay with host families and this is my little brother John and little sister Julia

- we had a breakfast and tour of Bellingrath Gardens 

- learned country line dancing at the Battleship. We also got a tour of the battleship!

- we went to camp grace to swim at the waterfront, have team building activities and go on the ropes course! 

- had a sick hop with the Girl Scouts!! 

- ate the best sea food in town at Bluegill!
