Our Miss Wisconsin experience has come to an end and we are back home. Although Sara was not chosen as a top ten semi-finalist, she did an outstanding job and we are so proud of her. She was a wonderful representative for Beloit. The pageant on Saturday night was wonderful and we enjoyed having one more chance to see Sara on stage in the group dance numbers. We attended the coronation ball after the pageant and Sara had fun dancing with the other contestants. It was nice to see all of them relax and have fun after such a busy week. Mark and Sara shared a dance and it was a memorable moment. The love and bond between them is so strong.

We enjoyed the awards breakfast on Sunday morning and then packed up ourselves and Sara for the trip back to Beloit. Thanks Grandma and Dick for all of your help in getting our things home! We love you.

It's great to be back home in Beloit! This has been a wonderful experience that we will never forget. Thanks to everyone for your love and support. Whether you made the trip to Oshkosh or kept Sara in your thoughts and prayers, we can't thank you enough. We are truly blessed to have all of you in our lives.

With all our love,
Mark and Sue
