I'm off to Vegas!

Here we are! After all the mock interviews, talent evaluations, wardrobe checks, and more, I am ready to go and I can't wait. The staff of Miss Maine have been so helpful in preparing me and I would never be this prepared if they had not cared as much. Every question I had, every time I felt overwhelmed, no matter what I needed, they were all there for me and I could never thank them enough. I also want to thank my family for their unending support and love. Thank you for always being there for me and making me feel like I could not only reach for the stars but actually come back down with one. I love you. Charlie, I don't know what to say, I thank God everyday for you and would be lost without your love and support, thank you for being so patient ;) Most importantly, I need to thank God without which none of this would have happened. Thank you for leading me down the road less traveled.

I can't believe that I leave on Thursday. Every once in a while I get butterflies when I think about being on that big stage at Planet Hollywood, but other than that, I'm excited to see what the trip brings, hopefully a crown! Make sure to watch "The Countdown To The Crown" on TLC at 10pm and the Miss America finals on Jan. 30th at 730pm!
Thanks to all those who have supported me in this journey, let's do this!
