Winter Gardens Aglow

Last weekend, Miss Idaho and I went caroling at the Idaho Botanical Gardens in Boise during Winter Gardens Aglow! I had never been to the Botanical Gardens but have always wanted to go, so it was very special to go for the first time as an appearance. It ended up being the only day of the week that it snowed, which added an even more special touch to the evening:) Kylie and I sang several Christmas carols requested by our audience and even sang a few with the children in the crowd!

Seeing the happiness of the kids that sang with us is what made the night the most special. Even though Kylie and I couldn't remember the words of Frosty The Snowman to save our lives (ha!), we had lots of fun!
I can't wait to go and enjoy Winter Gardens Aglow next year!

Merry Christmas

Your Friend,

The Christmas Parade: Marsing Style ;)

On Saturday the 11th, I was given the honor of being in my home town of Marsing's Annual Christmas Parade!! I was put in the cutest sleigh with two little girls who were so much fun! the sleigh was put together for me by City Hall and Mayor Keith Green.
There was a fantastic showing for the parade. We were lucky to have extra candy to throw out to the crowd!
The parade was definitely one of the highlights of my year thus far. It is always so exciting for me to make an appearance in my home town and it means a lot to me to represent the people of Marsing:)
Thank you to everyone who made our Christmas Parade possible this year!
