This Week
·
The exhibit begins June 1st, with no end date yet. I will share more as I get more info. I'm trying to decide what to put on display. Gown? Crown? Sash? Articles, etc.? It makes me nervous putting the crown on display but I know that's the one thing people love to see. What do you think?
I was also privileged to judge the Laws of Life essay contest a few weeks back. Their award ceremony is this week. I'm happy to attend and was asked to give the invocation. I will share photos of that (if any are taken) later. It's always a nice event, they have guest speakers, good food and driven teenagers...whom I know will make a difference in this world one day.
Sorry I haven't blogged much lately. Life has been very interesting. Only 3 to 4(ish) months until I'm blessed with my second baby. Don't know the gender! ;) Trying to get things ready at home and just get through this pregnancy...which is nothing like my first pregnancy, with my daughter. Wonder if that means BOY?! Ha.
Maybe I'll do a poll for people to guess in a couple months! My friend, Crystal Jo, did one and it was a lot of fun. I was wrong on hers! Haha.
Have a blessed week.
Dresses

And I'm STILL trying to sell my dresses. Making room for Baby 2.0. If I can't sell these and find good homes for these dresses, I'll probably take them to the local Plato's Closet then donate to Fairy Good-Mother's.

New Titleholders & Other News
·
It was a great weekend. Won't lie, it was nice to travel sans-husband and sans-child. I was able to watch what I wanted to watch the night before competition. Was able to take a long shower. Read some "fashion" magazines without a little one trying to rip out the pages. Catch up on a couple of chapters out of my Kindle. Haha. It was a good weekend with a great outcome.
Gabby Bailey and Elise Budowanec will compete for the title of Miss Ohio 2014 this summer! Here is a photo, from Jon's Photo:
In other news...
My baby girl sure has some to-do list:
Many blessings.
Day Dreaming

These gowns have me ooo-ing and aww-ing and drooling...
Miss Hilliard
·
The new Miss Hilliard is Cecili Weber! First runner-up was Gabby Bailey! Couldn't be happier for both young ladies!
My Miss Ohio sister, Renee, was one of their judges. I'm sure she had a blast!
Obviously, I didn't have high expectations for the pageant because it was the first time for such a large production/undertaking. Overall, it went well and the Miss Hilliard group should feel proud. There were glitches with sound/audio, scripting, etc.; but what live event doesn't have some hiccup?
And of course there are some things I would've done differently, added or taken out; but this is why I don't run a local...yet! ;)
As always, it was an entertaining evening and great to catch up with some of my Miss Ohio family!
"Vocal Coach: Roberta"
·
I have been singing since the ripe age of 9. My mother and her cousin overheard me singing "Part of Your World" from the Little Mermaid (my all-time favorite Disney movie). My mom thought I could actually sing...and she could tell it was something I really enjoyed.
I give it up to her for helping me follow-through with my dreams. She was the one who sought out a voice teacher (Jennifer Nicole!!) and found auditions in the city. She was the one who drove me everywhere and paid for everything. So of course I owe it to her.
I'm excited to have all ready received three inquiries into being a voice teacher since creating my Facebook page! I currently have one student and enjoy it so much. I love seeing her blossom and grow and become more confident in her vocal abilities. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions you have! robertacampalbert@yahoo.com
Thanks for reading.
TWC & MAO

TWC: Not The Weather Channel but...Two Way Crossing!
MAO: MAO (You better know it!)
Miss America Org.
I so wish I would've gone to this event last night. Right around the corner from the building where I work! Miss America (& Miss Ohio) was so close! Ohio State University & Ohio Union Activities Board brought Nina Davuluri to speak "about her experiences in handling stereotypes from others and her perceptions of being Miss America." (The Lantern, OSU)
Photo from Facebook
Davuluri encourages a Twitter or Instagram #hashtag of: #CirclesofUnity to promote her social issue of "Celebrating Diversity through Cultural Competency." What a mouth-full and what a cause to advocate!
Again, I wish I would've gotten my tush in the car and gone to listen and meet her! Heather was there and able to spend an extended amount of time with her Miss America...whom she said is so real & down to Earth! So great to hear!
I would also ask you to consider helping out my Miss America sister (Miss New Mexico) on her journey to Nashville!
She and her husband teamed up and want to record an album but they need our help! Watch the video to find out more...HERE!
Blessings!
