Little Miss Idaho Days Queen!



Today Raygen participated in the Little Miss Idaho Days Pageant. She had to learn a dance and perform it with all the other girls. Then she walked across the stage while the announcer read a description about her. She then gave a a speech and answered three questions. In her speech she said, "Hi! I'm Raygen Murphy. I am 9 years old and I love the color purple! I use it often in the pictures I draw because I love arts and crafts. I have a pet cat named Rosie. She hates everyone but me! She's feisty but I love her! I also have a pet pygmy goat and rabbit. It is my job to take care of them. One of my favorite things to do is to ride horses with my Grandpa Benton. I am my Mom and Dad's only daughter. I'm spoiled not too much, not too little, but just the right amount! My mom tells me I have a big heart to go with my big smile!"
For her questions, she was asked 1. Who is your role model? She said, "My mom and dad because they teach me not to be mean." 2. Why do you like living in Idaho? "Because it has a lot of nature and animals and I love those things!" 3. Why would you make a good princess? "Because I would be a good example to everyone and I would be nice to everyone."
She did an excellent job and we are VERY proud of her. Crown or no crown, Raygen is definitely our little princess!
