Time to say goodbye to our beloved Miss Lassen County, Emily Egan, and welcome in a new young lady to represent Lassen in the year to come. This year's contestants are Jessica Nobles, Katie LaDuca, Holly Fortin, Gabi Geoia, Kyla Bosse, Jordan McCloughan and Natalie Ruggiero. These ladies put so much time and energy into this scholarship program. It's impressive!

This year's theme for the pageant (scheduled for July 20th) is Alice In Wonderland, so we decided it would be fitting to have a tea party out in the trees. How fun is that?!! The girls were great to work with and as you'll see from the pictures, YES, they had a cake fight in their beautiful outfits!!! Holly's idea :) It was all in good fun though. You wouldn't even know they were competing against one another. They get along great; laughing & joking with each other through the whole session, and afterwards went out for pizza in their tea party outfits.

Speaking of friendship, this shoot would not have been possible without my dear friend, Carol Kramer. She is the ultimate prop queen and set director. Love you Carol and can't thank you enough for all you did!!!
