She started out the night as Tinkerbell. But by the time we got to her Nonni's, she was Sleeping Beauty!

All American Woman 2009 - October 4, 2008 - Midnight Beach Photo Shoot

We headed back to the beach for another amazing nighttime photo shoot. Here are some of the fun photos!

I couldn't resist one of "those" photos! My All American Ms. Talent 2008 title, Mrs. Supermodel With Style 2009 title and All American Woman 2009 title!

All American Pageant - All American Spirit Award & All American Woman 2009 - October 4, 2008

My girlfriend, Michele Sharpe (Mrs. MA United States 06, Mrs. MA Int'l 07, Mrs. MA AA 07 and Mrs. NH United States 08) let me borrow this cute little lavender dress for the opening number.

The pageant went well but it was now all over and the time for awards was upon us. I was so pleased and honored to receive the All American Spirit Award! Director Melissa Hooks hands me the award.

When it came time to award the titles, I was so shocked and happy to be announced as the new All American Woman for 2009!

I proudly take the title of All American Woman 2009 from an exemplary queen and the new All American Ambassador for 2009, Karen Jenkins. (I was so happy I was able to crown her daughter the night before as All American Ms. Talent for 2009!)

The Florida directors are so amazing and they had some wonderful queens to work with this year. They are so proud of the mother/daughter duo that took home 1st Runner-Up and All American Teen 2009! I look forward to hopefully appearing at the Florida pageant. Receiving congratulations after the pageant from emcee, Holly Campbell-Bradley, American Beauties Plus Elite 2009.

Mrs. United States 2007, Stephanie Hunt and Audrey Lorence congratulate me after the pageant.

Also, Mrs. All American 2009, Michele McIntosh.

Alyssa and I are with pageant sponsor Rhonda Howdyshell, Crown Clips, as she installs them on our crowns. They really are awesome! (That's not really Alyssa's crown because hers was being worked on. She just put the smaller princess crown on for fun!) Time for another midnight photo shoot...

All American Pageant - October 4, 2008 - American Image Pageant Sponsored Luncheon

That afternoon, the American Image Pageant staff sponsored a luncheon for all of the contestants so that we may be introduced to their wonderful new pageant system. Sherry Strother (to the far left) and Deb Dyer (in red) spoke to the contestants.

Ginny Meerman is the inaugural queen for the program and also had a chance to meet and talk with us.

Sherry Strother also held a book signing and I was so pleased to meet her.

I also had the chance to chat with Stephanie Hunt, Mrs. United States 2007.

Both are exceptional ladies.

Mrs. Supermodel With Style 2009 - October 4, 2009 - Surfside Beach Festival

Surfside Beach Festival - here we come!

The girls!

I was so happy to see my old friend, Stephania. She and I competed at Miss Virginia America and Ms. Petite International together. Stephania is also a former runner-up at the All American pageant.

After we introduced ourselves on stage, we moved to the fire truck for these great and fun photos.

I love Chick-fil-a and don't get a chance to eat it in Connecticut so when I saw the cow, I went running for a photo! (I confess, I was secretly hoping he had a Chick-fil-a to give out!)

Next stop, rehearsal and then pageant tonight!

Mrs. Supermodel With Style 2009 - October 4, 2008 - Early Morning Beach Photo Shoot

Unfortunately, we also had to be up the next morning for a 7:00 AM photo shoot. I had ended up with a migraine and could barely get myself ready that morning. Thank goodness for Kim and her daughter Whitney. I almost didn't make it down there. As you can see, these photos are pretty scary! LOL! You can also tell when the Advil starts kicking in...

This one's for the GIRLS - you know who you are - "WHOA OH OH OH OH - JUST HANGIN' TOUGH!"

Chris and her beautiful daughter Alyssa and my roomie, Kim and I all wanted to get some photos together. Like I said - you can tell the Advil has kicked in! LOL! I love these shots!
