Miss Arizona what a fun time

On Tuesday the 18th picked up our new cars from Nissan that they loaned us (Rhonda & I) to pick up the judges and take them around for the week of the pageant . What fun. We took them out to breakfast each morning about 9 and then out to dinner about 4:30 as we had to be at the pageant by 6PM. And they picked a beautiful Miss Arizona ( Savanna Troupe Miss Maricopa County. For those who don't know the judges pay their own way here and are not payed for their hard job of finding the right girl. The pageant could not take place with out all the volunteers and their work. I'm so proud of my family who do so much. The gifts for the judges made by Pam, the Decorating by Pam and Vanessa, The Goodies made by Chef Devon, and his crew of servers for the VIP reception, who where my Grandchildren and their husbands. In this picture the 3 young girls are daughters of the judges. Can't wait till next time.
