Boho vibes with @sherrijessee and @nathanmaysphotography.

Honest moment:

I think I’ll dress up as Miss Virginia USA for Halloween and the rest of the month.

Santa: “what do you want for Christmas?” Me: “To keep my title as Miss Virginia USA forever.”🎅

Huge thank you to the Edmunds family for sending 50 kids to the Virginia Tech homecoming game yesterday as well as tour the practice facility. This was definitely a Miss Virginia USA appearance I will never forget.

There is only three weeks until a new Miss Virginia USA is crowned. Slightly crying but I am so excited for a new women’s life to be changed for the better. Please head over to @ashweeamanda and give my personal account a follow to keep up with my life after the crown.

Shoots with @sherrijessee and @nathanmaysphotography are heavenly.

Another huge thank you to the Bitar Institute for being such incredible Miss Virginia USA sponsors! I am so blessed to have you with me through this entire journey, even before I won. My skin has never felt/looked so good.

Happy Veterans Day! Thank you to all the men and women that served our great nation. Thank you mom and dad for ensuring I receive the knowledge of what it truly means to be thankful for our freedom.

Two weeks until I crown my successor, who will she be?

Guess who came in the mail today, Flat Stanley! Thank you Christen Vollrath for allowing me to show Layla a day in the life of Miss Virginia USA and my new home.

Makeup lessons with Austin Ryde have me wanting to do my makeup even on winter weather advisories with 59 News. Can’t wait to head to the store and pick up all the products he recommended!

If you’re traveling to a sporting event make sure you drive slow, roads are icy!

Happy NFL Sunday everyone! #httr

Happy birthday sweet girl, I hope it’s just as wonderful as you are! @MissVATeenUSA

How is Miss Virginia USA weekend only three days away? I am so unbelievably blessed and thankful for this experience, I can’t wait to welcome a new girl to the sisterhood.

Last night was ‘yachts’ of fun!

How has this incredible journey come to an end? Thank you to all of the friends and family that came out to support me. The judges have an extremely difficult decision to make tonight but I can’t wait to welcome a new sister to the Kim Nicewonder family.

Let’s compare and contrast the first night with the crown to the last, 100+ appearances later but I’m still not ready for my retirement nap.
