takeing a walk

we decide to take some time to enjoy the beauty around and so we went to Tumwater Falls . It was a great afternoon cold but good

MISS SEATTLE

last night my neice was crowned MISS SEATLE this is a journey that she started 2 years ago to get scholorship money for colledge. she competed for MISS AURBURN first and won then MISS WASHINGTON there she won the talent portion, and this year was asked to compete in MISS SEATTLE and she won. Now she again will compete in MISS WASHINGTON. It is so fun to be able to watch and support her she truely is beautiful inside and out. We also will be watching my youngest neice in January as she competes for the first time for her chance at MISS AUBURN. (this is the largest scholorship program of its kind in the states ). and hope to watch then both at MISS WASHINGTON
