Cinderella and Her Fairy Godmother


Our Cinderellas and their Fairy Godmother
gathered Saturday for the Summerfest Parade.

Miss Greater Salt Lake, Hannah Harkness, and her Little Miss,
Kylie McCann are off to Miss Utah this week and their
final activity was the big Summerfest Parade.


All of the other little Cinderellas wanted to join
the parade, so they were dressed in her ballgown and
her wedding dress (ordered online).


 We had these three dresses custom made and they turned out 
so beautifully and so close to the dresses in the movie.


Wings had to be added to the Fairy Godmother's costume,
but other than that, it was fabulously like the movie.


Horses and a Cinderella carriage were rented for
the parade from Burch and Sons.



Our little Cinderellas were so excited to be part of
the parade.  



The blue ballgown was just stunning, and went so well
with the white carriage.


We even had pages to throw out candy to the 
kids on the parade route.




This is one of the biggest local parades.


The Fairy Godmother rode on the back waving her magic wand,


and occasionally getting off and throwing Summerfest hats.

It was so much fun, and now Hannah is off to
compete in Miss Utah.  What a fun year it has been and
as her Fairy Godmother, I have been so lucky to have
been taken along for the glorious ride!  Thanks Hannah
for a very, very fun year.

Miss Utah County and Her Little Miss




I am so thrilled to announce that my dear, dear friend
Hannah Harkness,
a piano performance major at BYU
won the title of
Miss Utah County this
past Saturday
and my oldest granddaughter
Kylie was her Little Miss.


Hannah was stunning in her gold gown that was
absolutely perfect on her.
She played Flight of the Bumblebee
which she told us is a 90 second
performance with 1, 197 notes
performed during the minute and a half.
Here she is flanked by her attendants.


Kylie had told me one day while we were 
driving down the road that she only had two
dreams in life, one Hannah had already made
come true by asking her to be her Little Miss
and the other was to go to Paris!


After Hannah's title was announced 
Kylie yelled out, "I did it!"  We all had
a big laugh at that.

What a character!!!
Congratulations to Hannah
There isn't a sweeter girl that could have
been awarded the crown, nor a more
talented one that I know.
