I few days after our visit to the Miss Utah preliminary was the final night of competition for Miss Utah. I am thrilled beyond measure to announce that our own, Miss Sanpete, Kayla Barclay (black dress) was crowned Miss Utah 2008. She worked really hard and truly deserves her victory. I loved working with these girls!! Kayla is the first woman from Manti to win and the second from Sanpete County to hold the title. What makes this situation unique is that this, was Kayla's first time competing at this level. She is only 18 yrs. old. Her motto was to "Step even beyond yourself" and she did. It is a testament to me of the power of positive thinking, that people can become whatever they choose and achieve even more then they ever imagined!!! Maybe I can keep trying to lose that annoying extra 10-15 lbs!!
