Miss Amazing

I am so far behind on updating this blog!

 Back at the end of July and beginning of Aug, Kayla and I headed to Nashville, TN for the National Miss Amazing Summit. 

South Carolina didn't have a state event; instead it was just video submissions. Kayla and another teen represented SC in the Teen category. 

This was Kayla's first time going to a Miss Amazing event and she had a blast. She enjoyed meeting so many other representatives from all over the U.S. 

There is also a pretty cool story about the dress she is wearing. The dress has come to be called "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Dress" and it has been passed around between girls in the Down syndrome community with the goal of being worn in every state. 

Kayla and Micky bonded over their love of Hamilton (as you can see in their pose below!) 

Kayla's "Passion Performance" was dancing to "My Shot" from... yep, Hamilton! 
I just love her confidence on stage! This video was from her rehearsal:
