Busy Day with my Princesses

Today I helped my Sunshine Princesses get started on decorating their banks that will hold the change they are collecting for Children's Miracle Network.  The banks are supposed to reflect the theme of the Miss Florida Scholarship Pageant this year which is "Cirque de Crown" so we thought we would start with the bright colors of the pageant logo.  We cut up tissue foil and glued them on the boxes we bought for the banks. 

 

  It was messy, but fun!  We had to scrub the glue off our hands to get ready for our fundraiser for Promise to Kate Foundation.  For three hours we worked a topping bar at Kilwin's Ice Cream and gave out yummy fudge samples.  All of the proceeds, which totalled $200, will go to PTK! 

Kate loved her ice cream!

What a great day!

Princess Time

I love spending time with my Sunshine Princesses and since they've spent so much time helping with our Promise to Kate Junior Board  and raising money for Promise to Kate, I thought it was time to spend a little time pampering them. Today they went with me to the nail salon

 and we had a great time choosing colors and getting designs painted on our nails.   Since we didn't want our fun time to end soon, we also went out to have some ice cream together. 

Our first serious topic of conversation was the upcoming princess fundraiser for Children's Miracle Network.  Each year, the titleholder's Sunshine Princesses and Princes ask people to donate spare pocket change to add together to make a big change in the life of a sick child.  My girls are planning on asking their friends and teachers at school for a start, but we are continuing to plan different ways to get as much change as we can for them to bring to the Miss Florida pageant in July.  Go girls!  I will support you any way I can. 

Children's Miracle Network

Miss America and Miss America's Outstanding Teen support and do all they can to raise money for Children's Miracle Network. As an Outstanding Teen titleholder I want to do all I can to support this organization, but it is also important to me because my little Kate benefits from this organization through Wolfson Children's Hospital here in our hometown of Jacksonville.  If you can help me meet and exceed my goal of raising at least $100 I would appreciate your support.  I'm already halfway there!  Here's the link to donate.  Thanks in advance!
