My Gala Fundraiser!

Well my Gala fundraiser was this last weekend and it turned out to quite a success! For most of the day I was golfing in Columbus at my high school golf tournament, and then right when I got finished my friend Jenessa Monson picked me up and we were on out way to Billings for the party. There were a lot of familiar faces there and both the live and silent auctions went really well. I gave a welcome speech, telling everyone how I did playing in my first golf tournament, which wasn't my very best. I took a 10 on my very first hole and it seemed that every hazard, water, or out of bounds I was there. But hey it was the first tournament of the year and my mind was on the party so I think that makes it for up, my golf coach on the other hand is glad that now that the party is over,so now I can maybe concentrate a little more! I also told a funny story at the party about Megan and I getting pulled over and everyone liked that one. There was also a visiting royalty mini style show and the Home Of Champions Queen, Brettin Ranch Little Miss, and Miss Rodeo Montana. During the live auction I felt right at home. My step-dad Andy Rest is a ring man at cattle auction so taking bids at my Gala was a piece of cake! My dad Todd Harris from California also flew in for the weekend and is getting familiar with all this "Queen" stuff. Then at the end of the party I presented my mother and Deb Brettin with flowers for all their hard work. I really appreciate all that everyone has done for me and for all the love and support I have gotten from everybody. If I could I would list everyone but that would take a very long time! I just would like everyone to know how much I appreciate everyones support by attending, donating, buying, and helping out where they could. The thank you are endless and I will be writing thank you cards for a very long time!
Thank You,
