sun valley pageant weekend

get ready for a long post you guys!  I have lots of pictures to share with you.  last weekend, I went up to sun valley, idaho with two friends i work with at the daycare center.  one of the friends i went with had entered her beautiful daughter kennedy drew into the pageant that was being held in the sun valley lodge.  we woke up bright and early and left for sun valley (6:30 am to be exact) on saturday morning.  obviously, we had to get some delicious breakfast so we went to mcdonalds.  YUM!  my favorite breakfast there is the sausage egg mcmuffin.  holy deliciousness.

we arrived up in sun valley a couple hours later and got all settled into our wonderful hotel room. at the sun valley lodge.  it was gorgeous!  after a bit we did some pageant things with kennedy and then we went out to dinner at a burger place up there.  hamburgers and french fries just happen to be one of my most favorite foods in the entire world, so i was definitely in heaven.  i'd rate their burgers as a 7 on a scale of 1 to 10.  I wish i could remember the name of it so that I could recommend it for you guys.

anyways, we enjoyed a glass of wine and also took advantage of the coziest robes that were provided for us.  i loved mine so much, i slept in it!  i really should ask for one for christmas.  the next day (sunday) we did all the rest of the pageant events.  we got to watch all the cute kids get up on stage.  okay, most of them were cute, but some were so reminiscent of the show toddlers and tiaras.  kennedy did fantastic.  she won five trophies total and even won prettiest eyes (as you'll see in the pictures below she deserved that award) and she also got second runner up.

the weekend was such a great little get away.  im so thankful i got the chance to go!
