Here We Go!

I can not help but sing Nsync's Here We Go anytime I'm getting ready to do something big...Here we go, one more time, everybody's feeling fine, here we go now (yes yes yes here we go...Nsync has got the flow...)  I think it's my inner child's way of jumping with excitement!

I am about to do something that makes me scared, excited, nervous, vomitty, and pumped. I am going to compete in the Mrs. Alaska Pageant! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I know!

The pageant scene is not completely new to me. I did pageants in my teens and LOVED IT! I don't want to toot my own horn but I was kind of the best Miss Jr. Teen Anchorage ever (HaHa - just kidding! I fell on my face more times then once and usually answered most of my questions with "ummmmmmm")

My brother Carlos, Me, and My Mom

Regardless, I loved the feeling and now that I am a mommy to my own little princess, the thoughts of doing pageants again is kind of exciting! I have to be honest though, I am a few pounds bigger than I was in my teens and have a few hundred more responsibilities. This is going to truly be a test!

I'm going to blog my way through it. Every workout, every dress fitting, every community commitment... everything! I am thankful to have my family backing me 100% and  to all of the Mrs. Alaska Pageant staff who reassure me that I'm not crazy for wanting to do this. 

Let the fun begin...Here We Go!
