PICTURE DAY

Hello lovely people!
Last weekend was a BLAST! All of the sister queens were reunited along with our lovely committee! (The Queen Mum was even there!) We started with an early morning at Cassie's Classic Cuts! Cassie is one of the very few people I trust with my hair, so I was pretty excited! They primped and pampered us for our photoshoot!
 I found a new favorite nugget! Baby Charlotte is the sweetest thing! 

Here is the group with all of our lovely stylists! Thank you so much to Cassie and her crew!

After we were done being beautified we did short mock interviews before our shoot. I am becoming more comfortable with being questioned by a panel of judges. I would have to say though, that the most intimidating judge was Carter. His restless body kept me laughing throughout the entire thing :) 

After a quick lunch and interviews, we headed out to Tara Bjerke Photography to take some pictures! She did an amazing job dealing with all of us! 

Of course, Sadie had to photo bomb every single picture! (: Still love her though!

I am so excited to see Tara's picture of this! True Sleigh and Cutter girls (:

A huge thanks to Cassie's Classic Cuts and Tara Bjerke for making our day so successful! 

xoxo,
Katie

Halloween, Miss Mankato, Indoor, OH MY!

Another crazy couple of weeks have gone by! Time really does fly when you are having fun! I successfully survived bingo for the second time! The directors let us dress up for Halloween (that was my favorite part!) 
The directors even dressed up!

A few weeks back, Sadie and I got to help out at FarmAmerica's Haunted Corn Maze! We thought we recognized the sheriff on duty out there, but weren't 100%! But sure enough, our main guy, Ken, happens to be a sheriff! (WHO KNEW?!) It was so good to see him for one of the first times after the pageant!

 Alyssa and I got to celebrate Halloween with the Waseca community at the FarmAmerica Halloween Festival. There were different stations for kids to go around to and play games, explore the buildings, and get candy! We saw some of the cutest nuggets! it was so fun! Two of the cutest happened to be our favorite little girls!
Minnie and the witch!

Last weekend, Alyssa, Lauren, and I travelled to Mankato to see the new Miss Mankato be crowned! What a fun experience to see Kaitie take the title! It was also so great to see so many royalty there! I even got to see Drew (: She has given me such big shoes to fill and I am so honored to know her! EVERYONE GO WATCH HER AT MISS GRAND CITIES/MISS GRAND FORKS ON NOVEMBER 30TH AND CHEER HER ON! SHE IS THE BEST. 

silly queens! 

Team Waseca (: well….part of it! 

Last night, I went to see my baby sister queen march her butt off at Indoor! And what an amazing job did she do! The Waseca Marching Jays are an amazing group of kids! I am so grateful I was able to be a part of such a wonderful organization for 4 years of my life. I am also so glad that Sadie can experience it! Truly, there is nothing quite like the family of the Marching Jays. 
Is she not the cutest or what?

Next weekend is our Team Waseca photo shoot! To say that I'm excited would be an understatement. The four of us have not been together since the Classic! Our princesses even get to join us! (: Stay tuned!

xoxo,
Katie
