I have been working for a while on the "Citizen's Breakfast" for Best Buddies of Utah. The event was this morning and I have to tell you, there was more than a little stress involved. We planned for around 260-300 guests, as of last week we had 92. Luckily this morning was a huge success and we had our 260 guests show up. La Caille was wonderful to work with as usual. I have to say that it was fun, and I am glad that it is over!
I love this picture of Miss Utah, Laura Chukanov and some of the Buddies. Laura is such a wonderful spokeswoman for Best Buddies.
This is Rob who co-chair the event with me. He was so great to work with, and Melissa is with us who was one of our awesome volunteers.
I had some seriously great people at my table. It was so wonderful that they all came to support me as well as Best Buddies. Some of them don't live close at all. Thank you everyone for coming!
I loved the program. Justin Haskell, the State Director for Best Buddies of Utah put on a great program about Best Buddies. Some of the Buddies spoke as well, it was so neat.
I was so happy to have Karmel Larsen, Mrs. Utah 2009 at my table. It was wonderful for her to take time out of her schedule to come and be with us at this breakfast.
I was so happy that this event was over, but elated that it turned out so well!

It was so fun! Thanks again for the invite! I am so glad there was tons of people there - the buddies were so excited - it was sooo cute.
And I had no idea Mrs. Utah is pregnant - she was walking to her car and we were talking and I did not even notice until she was getting in.
