"The Traveling Tic" Blog is Launched!
FINALLY!!! IT'S DONE! Well, I didn't necessarily give up my crown two years ago, but rather I passed it on to my son. Still promoting my platform of "Embracing the Special Needs Child," today I am launching our
Blog (Kenny & I) called "The Traveling Tic" documenting our journey
as a Mother and Son in the Tourette Syndrome world and Kenny's travels
as a TSA Youth Ambassador. I have backdated our journey from
when we started our support group 2 years ago with 40 posts. People say
I should write a book, I think I just did! LOL! Also, when you have
time, I encourage you to read our Tourette Syndrome Story by clicking on the
tab attached to the top of the Blog. It explains more in detail our
roller coaster of a ride. Hopefully you will be blessed...and hopefully
you don't find too many typos! A work in progress this is! Please click on the following link to continue on with me in our journey!:

STAY TUNED! MORE TO COME!
Hello followers! Thank you for visiting my site! I took some time off to post due to being busy with my boys and their activities to include the exciting opportunities that have been passed down to my older son Kenny who has Tourette Syndrome. We have been very active in the growth of the Support Group we lead for special need families to include diagnosis of Tourette Syndrome, Autism, ADD, ADHD, OCD and other Co-morbid conditions. See above link on our Support Group for more information.
As a result of how our ministry for special need families has evolved, especially for my son Kenny, I have decided to create a Blog for us called the Traveling Tic documenting our journey as Mother and Son in the Tourette Syndrome World. Please stay tuned! I hope to attach the link in about a month updating you on our travels these past 2 years.

2011 SHE Soiree Military Wives Lounge
Well, finally I am posting my last official appearance as Mrs. Washington 2010. What better way than to honor our first line of defense on the homefront - our military wives! God bless these women!

Article from the Fort Lewis Ranger featuring the SHE Soiree Military Wives Lounge I had the privilege of hosting at Life Center in Tacoma, WA. I was so honored to have the opportunity to bless our military wives as I know personally the sacrifices that make everyday being a military wife myself.

Crowning Little Miss Idlewild 2011!
On June 3, Grace Jeong was crowned Little Miss Idlewild 2011! This year her mother bid the highest amount to win a visit from not only one, but two Mrs. Washingtons! Lisa Bluhm, Mrs. Washington 2011 and myself, Mrs. Washington 2010 had the honor of being special guests at Idlewild Elementary to crown Grace - what a sweet girl! The visit included a pizza party for Grace's classmates which included root beer floats and more treats. We also had a blast playing Bingo and giving out prizes to the winners! I have sponsored this event for 5 years now - what fun it was to be able to come back this years as Mrs. Washington 2010!

Annual Moses Lake Lip Sync Contest Performance!

Making sure our beach balls are pumped up and full of air. Wow, look at the crowd behind me - this is the largest community event of the year for Moses Lake.
The Amphitheater where we perform every year in front of thousands of people!
Lisa Bluhm, Mrs. Washington 2011, speaking to the audience after being one of the judges for the evening. I just love this picture of our Director Pam Curnel and I doing the back stroke. We both love to dance!
Our Director Pam Curnel made all of the costumes as well as choreographed the dance routine for this performance. She did a fantastic job in having us represent the 70's here. Watch out Tina Turner - Pam is in the house!
