Merry CHRISTmas!

Merry CHRISTmas one day late everyone! My year of being Miss Nebraska Teen USA 2013 has been such an amazing gift from God, and I'll be forever thankful. However, Jesus is the ultimate best gift any of us could ever imagine! So, as you celebrate Christmas this season, remember the Reason for the season.  I pray everyone had a wonderful day yesterday filled with joy, love, and peace. God bless you! Love, Jasmine

Pierce Junior/Senior High School

It was so neat speaking at Pierce's Junior/Senior High School. Throughout my year, I normally spoke to students that were younger than me, so this was a change getting to speak to students my age! I'm very thankful for the opportunity!

I have the most amazing grandparents ever as well as a wonderful great aunt! They all came to Pierce's Junior/Senior High School to listen to me speak as Miss Nebraska Teen USA for one of the final times! I love them so much!

Thank you, Pierce Junior/Senior High School for having me in to speak! I was honored!
