Mrs. United States Day 4 - Rehearsal

Day 4 brings with it the day that we will officially be seen on stage for competition. All 54 delegates will compete tonight for swimsuit and evening gown. Lots of work went into making the show look "fabulous" and we have our wonderful choreographer Natalie to thank for it! She not only choreographs, but she has an amazing voice and we found out that she is also a bit of a comedian as she repeatedly kept telling us that "there will only be 1 winner, so accept your chances of 1 out of 54 and that 53 of you will not win and deal with it" LOVED IT!!

With our Choreographer for the show - Natalie - she was great to work with and has an amazing singing voice as well!!

With the wonderful and vivacious Stephanie Hunt, Mrs. United states 2007

I wanted to represent the organization I am a spokesperson for - VolunteerMatch.org at our Naitonal Pageant! An amazing non-profit organization that "strengthens communities by bringing good people and good casuses together to make a difference" http://www.volunteermatch.org/ Thanks to the ladies who took part - you're great!!

My daughter Evmorfia made a short little film about the pageant and these lovely ladies were so kind to work on it with her - you ladies are the BEST!!!! Thanks so much for giving this little almost 7 seven year old the biggest thrill!!
