Mrs. Virginia United States Pageant

I had a blast at the Mrs. Virginia United States Pageant in Williamsburg, Virginia! First, Rebecca Crosen and I met up and went shopping, then we met with Darla Lacey(Mrs. Virginia America 2007) and Jodi Simkins(sp?) and got a bite to eat! The pageant was great and the ladies were beautiful! As I was ready to get pictures, my camera card said FULL!!!! UGGG!!!!! But luckily I was able to get photos via email from other queens. They are still coming in, but here are a few! Congrats to the new Mrs. Virginia United States, Lisa Lutz.
