Shout out to Erin & WEG Opening Ceremonies!

Shout out to my twin sister, Erin! Hey, I miss you soooo  much and I can't wait to see you soon. Had a lot of fun at your Valentine's Day party and am soo excited to be a Commodore with you next year! Even though it is really late into the 'season' for Junior Company, congrats again for being in it. Ditto to my WEG bestie, Brianna Mayo, whom I had sooo much fun with at the WEG opening ceremonies... ( I miss Jello Degeneres, and Jayda too! :D ) You're the best actress I know and am glad I have gotten to see your performances, now you need to see me compete!!! :)

For those of you that are clueless, my brother and I, along with one of my best friend's sister, as well as Brianna Mayo, (as mentioned above) and about hundreds of other kids and teens from Lexington got together and auditioned to be in the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games. Approx 150 kids and teens made the cut and practiced a longgggg time, almost every day for about a month to prepare to be part of the entertainment for the opening ceremonies. We walked out the athletes, carrying a sign with the country's name on it, (I had Ireland anddddd USA! :) Yay!) sang, danced, and participated in mannnnnyyyy of the opening ceremonies acts. It was a lot of fun, some of us got to perform with Wynonna Judd, and some of us got to see Muhammad Ali... also, by participating in this, we also had the opportunity to perform for Bill Clinton at a fundraiser! It was fun, but we didn't get to see him... Ocho Cinco was at that performance too! :) The practices were long and sometimes hard, but they were fun and if I had the chance to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing! :) Enjoy the pics and comment or email me for more info, this was very brief...
