Great article from my high school paper, The Amplifier.  

I love being a West Linn Lion and the support from my school is amazing!

This just in.....Tense Moments at the Westward Ho Parade!

The Pendleton Round-Up was an amazing experience.  This video is a little 'moment' that happened during the Westward Ho Parade. Note: No animals or Rose Festival Presidents or Queens were injured during this 'moment.'

Rosarian Ball - congrats Marilyn

Went to a great ball with the Royal Rosarians. A wonderful way to welcome in the new Prime Minister - Marilyn. After we left I barely escaped the pirates!

From Rodeo's to Lumberjack Shows

What's a girl to do after a great weekend at the Pendleton Round-Up?  Go to a lumberjack show of course!  The Orofino Lumberjacks days, a mere 4 hours from Pendleton was just what we needed to round out the weekend.  I got to saw with a lumberjack from New Zealand in the Jack & Jill event.  I threw in the open women's axe throw and I log rolled for the first time in the open women's birling and I got 3rd place!  Not bad.  I've included a little video of me log rolling so you can get an idea of what it's like, I'm the one in the neon green shirt.

Pendleton Round Up - Rose Festival Queen

A big thank you to my friends at the Pendleton Round-Up and Happy Canyon Pageant. Queen Shaina, Kylee, Crystal, Kylie, Katy, Jory and Marissa you were amazing and soooo fun to watch this weekend.  It was great to see you in your element.  I officially want a horse now and all the regalia.  This weekend was an adventure for sure!
