They had been looking at apartments for Mike and the next day I went with them to a couple of places that they had narrowed down to. Later we went to Spoon by H which is my favorite restaurant and I have become very close to the owners. Mike and his family, his cousin Sylvie and my friends Lindsay, Autumn, and Mikayla came to celebrate me becoming Miss New York USA!
We had a great time and it meant so much to me to get together at my favorite place! Afterwards Mike's family and I went shopping at American Rag and then went to dinner at Red O which has gourmet Mexican dishes.
The next day we ate at the Andaz where we were staying and I loved the pasta! Then I headed back to the hotel room because I was expecting a call from the Miss Universe Organization. They called for a Road to the Crown interview where they asked me a lot of different information about myself.
That night we had a nice dinner at Osteria Mozza which was our first time there.
Back at the hotel I did some research for appearances that I wanted to make as Miss New York USA and things that would help me towards Miss USA. The next day Mike's family and I went to stores to look for furniture that would go in his apartment that he was pretty sure he was going to get because we all absolutely loved the building and the apartment. During the day I stopped into FORD to see my former bookers and show them the crown and banner! They were happy for me and understood that I wanted to put my modeling career on hold while I did everything that I could with my title. That evening we had dinner at the Andaz and we had an early birthday celebration for Mike since it was past midnight New York time!
The next day was Mike's birthday and it was exciting because he signed a lease for an incredible apartment in Hollywood!
We brought in some little things that we bought and then we went to Beverly Hills for lunch at South Beverly Grill that we love! After shopping around there we went to West Hollywood to pick out a matress and since we were the only ones in the store Mike had fun testing the beds out haha
Mike always keeps me laughing :) Later we all got ready for dinner and celebrated the birthday boy at Katana on Sunset Boulevard. We love the ambiance and the food there so we had a great time! Since Mike loved the dessert at the Andaz the night before we decided to go back and we went all out trying almost everything! We had such a nice time celebrating together!
HaPpPy Birthday Mike! I am so happy that you had an amazing birthday, you deserve all of the best! I am beyond blessed to have you in my life. <3
The next morning we all went to breakfast at the hotel and then they took me to the airport so that I could go home before I had to go to Atlanta to pick out my Miss USA gown! While I was waiting at the airport I found out that my flight was canceled! I had trouble finding another flight back home that day and I only had one day before I was going to Atlanta so I changed my plans and made a flight from Los Angeles to Atlanta. While I waited at the airport for Mike and his parents to pick me back up I worked on things I needed to get done for the pageant. Later for dinner we went to Spoon by H and ate a ton of amazing food.
The next morning I worked out in the hotel gym and then Mike and his Dad went to test drive cars while Mike's Mom and I went to the Beverly Center. I was excited that I found a dress that I could wear in Atlanta since I wasn't going home anymore and I also bought a beautiful full-length dress to save for an event at Miss USA. Then we went back home and we were surprised when the guys showed up with a new car! Mike made a great choice and I was happy for him! Then we finished setting some things up in the apartment and all went to Cafe Med for dinner. While we were eating a man with long hair walked in and sure enough it was Fabio haha We were still celebrating Mike's birthday and that he got an apartment and car. Also, it was my last night in LA so of course we got dessert!
I had such an amazing trip but it was time to pack to go to Atlanta!
