Alex and I had a great year learning the ropes as the directors of Miss Ellis County, but it is time for us to step out on our own. We are very excited to announce that we will be taking on a new local - Miss and Miss Teen Irving!
Many of you know that we struggled with finding "just the right" title, especially since there are already several in the Metroplex. The one day on facebook Peter Blair (Miss Texas, Kristen Blair's Dad) suggested, "What about Miss Irving?"
At first Alex was not too keen on the idea, she is a Fort Worth girl and one way or another she was going to come up with a title that tied in where we both have been born and raised! But for me this was a great idea, that I am not sure why I never thought of!!!
My Great, Great Uncle, J.O. Schulze, was actually one of the two founding fathers of the town of Irving back in 1903. (Irving wasn't officially incorporated until April 14, 1914.) When my Aunt Catherine passed away a few years back, many of the family heirlooms were donated to the Heritage House Museum in Irving. Alex is having a great time learning more about my families past and the development of Irving!
So for now, stay tuned for updates! Our Twitter is up and running https://twitter.com/MissIrving and our website should be very soon!
