With Tami Krause, Mrs. Minnesota International 2009!

Last Friday, November 13 was my official banner presentation! Mrs. Minnesota 2009, Tami Krause, was on hand to present me with my banner and my husband Chris added the “crowning” touch:

My husband Chris crowns me Mrs. St. Paul International 2010!

I was so happy that several of my coworkers and supporters were there, including Steve Skinner from the American Cancer Society. It was a great opportunity to not only celebrate my title as Mrs. St. Paul, but also share my story and platform of colon cancer prevention. Tami also shared her platform, “The HEART of the Matter,” promoting heart health and the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women campaign. So many of the steps that help prevent colon cancer, like diet and exercise, are also important in preventing heart disease!

The presentation was such a fun event and a great opportunity to celebrate with some of my favorite people! Thanks so much to everyone and to Tami for making the event one that I’ll always remember!
