Lauren's Sweet 16

My best friend, Lauren Beltran, had her sweet 16 last weekend. I was so glad that I could be with her on her special day and the party was absolutely wonderful. The decorations were amazing; a ton of lights and even ice sculptures!! I have been friends with Lauren since I was a little baby and she is such a treasured friend. I can't believe that she is already 16!!! Wow!!! I was so excited to give her a Juicy Couture purse- I think that she really liked it. Here's a fun fact: Lauren's birthday is the same as my mom's and Walt Disney's!!

Cookie Lee Christmas Party

Last weekend I went to a lovely Cookie Lee Jewelry party. It was so nice to catch up with my pageant friends and the jewelry was so cute! (I even got a free pair of earrings!) The Gushwa family hosted the party; they always have the best Christmas decorations! I'm so excited that the Christmas season is here!

NCL Fundraiser

Last night was amazing!!! We had our annual NCL Fundraiser at the Saticoy Country Club. My family got all dressed up in our western garb and we definitely had a blast! The dinner was delicious and they served warm apple cobbler for desert...sooo good! All of my friends were there to dance and we had such a wonderful time! I can't tell you what a good time I had- I could have danced all night!

A Relaxing Weekend

Evan and I had a wonderful weekend last week! We went on a beautiful hike up in Ojai (even though we had to turn around due to the fire hazard). We spent time with my relatives from Idaho and spent time with my new born cousin, Alexandra. (Though I call her Lexi!) We also went to dinner with Evan's sister for her birthday and saw her newborn, Gracie. We were so busy, but we had a great time! Not to mention, Kiko was definitely a supermodel- he has been photographed quite a lot lately!

Spirit Week

Last week was Spirit Week at school and I was in charge of managing the entire week! It turned out to be a fair amount of work, but I think that the student body enjoyed it. Monday was Pajama day, Tuesday was 80's day, Wednesday was Twin day, Thursday was Buena and Ventura Nerd day, and Friday was Superhero day. On Tuesday, I hosted a "skip it" contest and we definitely had a lot of school participation. During the week, I passed out candy to the students that dressed up; I could not believe how eager they were for a tiny piece of candy! The week was a hit and I hope that my peers had as much fun as I did!

"Wicked"

I had an amazing weekend! On Sunday I met with the Ticktockers to see the performance of "Wicked" at the Pantages Theater. We went by charter bus and we had a great time catching up. The friendships that I have made through this organization are some of the best in my life, and they all mean so much to me. We got to the theater an hour and a half early, so we definitely had some time to kill. We walked all around the Farmer's Market and it was quite a "people watching" adventure. We stumbled upon the cutest animals for adoption. There were puppies and kittens; they were all so friendly and lovable. I felt so bad because they would have four cats in a tiny cage; I wish that there was something I could do to help them. I was so excited once the show started! This was my second time (the first time was with Evan on a date!) and I loved it just as much. The singing and acting were phenomenal and watching the performance always leaves me wishing that I could perform like that. The best part was when we went to the actor's exit and got to meet the cast and get their signatures! I thought that it was the neatest thing ever!

Halloween!!

This past week was Halloween and I had a great time! I was a cat by day and Cleopatra by night. At first I was just planning on passing out candy to the kids in our neighborhood but then I was invited to go trick or treating with some friends. We watched part of "Scream", which I had never seen before and then we went and collected our candy. I guess that deep down, I am still a kid at heart! Not to mention, Kiko and I had a fun photo shoot earlier in the day since we were both cats!
