Proud to be an Alaskan!!

Wow, what a week! I couldn't be more proud to represent Alaska this week, since our governor Sarah Palin was nominated as the vice-presidential candidate on the republican ticket. Governor Palin makes me proud to be an Alaskan and a woman. She is a woman of great strength and conviction who I've admired for several years. By the way, she was once a beauty pageant winner like me. :)
I couldn't be happier to be seeing her get such national recognition. We are all just thrilled here, as we already know what great things she is capable of. As Mrs. Alaska, I have had the opportunity to meet her and be photographed with her. It's unbelievable that could soon be a picture of me with the Vice-President of the United States! Whatever the outcome of the upcoming election, I hope Sarah knows that back home in Alaskan, our thoughts and prayers are with her and that she has already accomplished much to be proud of.
