Good Things Utah
Here is Emily getting ready for the cooking segment on Good Things Utah. Emily made a yummy Lemon Berry Pie... It was delicious!
Garden Room Restaurant
After Good Things Utah it was off to lunch at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. Yummy Yummy! This is a fun day for mom's or Grandma's to come with us!
Going Down???
Be Loyal to the Royal!
We also went to the Church Administration building for a visit with Elder Jay Jensen. Elder Jay E. Jensen is currently serving as a member of the Presidency of the Seventy, having served in Area Presidencies in Central and South America and in different areas in the USA and Canada.
Elder Jensen gave the girls a wonderful talk and left them with the message that they were all beautiful on the outside with their crowns and banners but to always "Be Loyal to the Royal" that is inside of you. It was awesome!
He also gave them the opportunity to ask him any questions "they have ever wanted to ask" and told them the purpose of the conference room that they were in. Each of the chairs the girls sat in were the chairs used by the 12 apostles when they meet there, which they do weekly. At the head of the table were three chairs that were for the 1st Presidency.
Here are our beautiful Rodeo Queens!

Open Hearts
This year Mady Memmott created a platform called “Open Hearts”. It is about working in our community to break the stigma that sometimes is placed on those with special needs. One of her ideas was to invite four very special young women from our high school to ride with our royalty on the Pleasant Grove float in the Strawberry Day’s parade. They will also be attending our queen’s tea and some other events. Here is a picture of them the night they received the "crowns and pins" at city council meeting! What a fun time we are going to have!

Miss Utah Tea Party
Today was the Miss Utah Little Miss Tea Party! Staci attended with her Little Miss... Sadie Marchbanks! The Little Miss program is a mentoring program for little girls in the State. Each contestant choses a little girl to be her Little Miss. This year Sadie is the lucky one with Staci! Sadie will be in the production number each night at Miss Utah and the night that Staci competes in evening wear... Sadie will be on stage with her during the modeling portion. The Little Misses are special guests at many activities during the week. They each get a Miss Utah bag, a beautiful white dress and a tiny "Litte Miss Crown". It is so fun for each of these tiny ladies!

Miss Pleasant Grove 2009
Here is the article from the Daily Herald:
Emily Nelson was crowned Miss Pleasant Grove 2009 at Pleasant Grove High School in an auditorium overflowing with spectators.
The 2.5-hour event drew a sold-out crowd with standing room only on Saturday night. With 15 contestants at the Miss Pleasant Grove Scholarship Pageant, the program was filled with local entertainment.
The newly appointed Miss PG has four attendants. They are first runner-up Mady Memmott, second runner-up Amanda Cannon, third runner-up Kimberly Labrum and fourth runner-up Adriana Turley. Each will represent the city at parades and other events through the year as well as compete at other scholarship pageants.
“We’ve seen a lot of talent and ability tonight,” said Pleasant Grove Mayor Mike Daniels of the 15 contestants. “Your royalty is in there, they’re there.”Other awards were given at the event to Brooklyn Bond as Miss Photogenic, Marissa Walker as selling the most tickets, Kara Norsworthy for her platform, and Alisha Garner selected by her peers for the Spirit of Miss PG Award.
Jadrie Carter ran away with the physical fitness and swimwear award, Brooklyn Bond won the presentation and poise/evening wear competition, Rachel Harmon was selected for the private interview winner, and Talia Wilson took the artistic expression and talent award. “We’ve had 15 outstanding young women who’ve done amazing platforms,” said Terry Marchbanks, pageant spokeswoman.
Emily Nelson established a platform called “ABC’s of Teaching” and will support “believing in children” as part of carrying the platform in to the schools and homes of Pleasant Grove.
As Miss PG 2009, she wins $3,000 in scholarship funds and a $2,500 tuition waiver scholarship at Capelli Institute upon completion of her one-year service.
The theme of the pageant this year was “On Broadway.” The Miss Pleasant Grove Scholarship Pageant is one of the first staged for the pageant season in Utah County because the city’s celebration “Strawberry Days” is one of the earlier events produced during the summer months and the royalty must present themselves to dignitaries inviting them to the week-long event.
