She did it again....

This last weekend Mama Finn and family all joined together in Mt. Pleasant to watch Shelbie compete in the Miss Mt. Pleasant Rodeo Queen competition. Shelbie did awesome. She had to ride her horse in the freezing cold....snow! The horse had a slip up but Shelbie kept it together and pulled it off. She is an excellent rider....but we all already knew that!
After the riding was over we had a break and went to lunch then it was off to get ready for the modeling, speech, and interview. Mama Finn made her dress again this year (Ericka was the Jeweler:). Let me just tell you, Shelbie looked stunning. Her dress was perfect for her. She definitely stole the show....and the judges "loved her bright colors!"
Shelbie is improving every year that she competes. Her speech was so cute and really showed her cute personality. She was able to answer all the questions in the interview and felt very good about how she did talking to the judges. The competition was very intense this year. All the girls competing had been in royalty before and so level of competition was top notch and very entertaining to watch.
With the scores tallied, nerves in over-drive and the competition over the results were announced and.......Shelbie got 1st Attendant!!!!! It was so exciting to be a part of. She really impressed everyone that was there. She was beautiful and we are all so proud of her.
Way to go Shelbo!
