Pageants- exploring the good and the bad~~~~memories by Janel Smietana

As a previous pageant competitor, I can see both sides of the issue. I do think when used with the right demographic and purpose there are many benefits. There can be downsides. You win some and you lose some, but you do learn achievement and disappointment. I had the honor of judging a few pageants after winning which wasn't always easy as all the young women were great. Ahh the memories, me as Miss Friendship Festival (pageant queen 2003- memories memories ;))...One of the few things salvaged from our house fire...

My new baby Hershey-by Janel Smietana

 I have wanted a puppy for a really long time. Growing up around dogs, with a variety of breeds I have always been a dog lover. I had a few cats very early on, whom I loved dearly, but nothing comes close to having a dog for me. Being a big dog person, I am drawn to yellow labs or my dream dog the Bernese Mountain Dog (I swear they look like adorable stuffed animals as puppies)! However, given my living situation

it wouldn't be fair to bring in a large dog right now. After much searching, I seem to have found the perfect furry friend solution-a miniature Husky! He is a big dog in a smaller dogs body. It was a challenge finding a good breeder, but with time and my fiancé's more careful analysis of the situation (it's the lawyer in him, lol) we found our perfect baby. His name is Hershey. He has sky blue gorgeous eyes, and black and white fur. I thought about naming him Smore, since in fact he looks like a Smore, but Hershey rolls off the tongue easier. He is my little Hershey Kiss and I love him to pieces. He is a handful, and I feel like I have an infant! He gets very sad if not by my side and gets into things he knows he shouldn't :) We love our new addition to the family <3

Oheka Castle visit- Janel Smietana

What an amazing place and amazing time! Paid a visit to Oheka Castle in Long Island, New York. Good friend from buffalo Julia Pastore, and cousin Kathy were in attendance. Exciting vendors, make up stops, tiaras, fashion shows, and door prizes. The castle was gorgeous. Can't quite put into words the visit, so here are a few pictures.
