Bake Walk & CMN Fundraiser!

Saturday was a blast but sadly it did dwindle quite a bit near the end of the day. So when I got their to start my day it was busy so I got set up and ready to sell my cards and candy canes for CMN. I got in a nice holiday themed dress and heels. Funny story actually my heel got caught in the vent register haha! so funny, had to be there though. Anyways. I did get quite a bit of donations. I received $45 for CMN! I am so thankful I have such a giving community.

Thank you to all who supported CMN, Heartland Kitchen & Me. It means the world and more to me that you came to the restaurant to support Maureen with the bake walk and me along the way. Also thank you to my co-workers who are more like my second family, for always rooting me on no matter what!

Sadly I did not sell all of my cards or candy canes. Oh well at least I got quite a bit from donations. Trust me guys it will all go to CMN directly. :D Here are some pictures for you guys and I hope you have a wonderful day. More to come later about my pageant future. Some changes might be amongst us! It's all in God's hands and laid at his feet!

Til Later!

Raising Funds for New Smiles!

Hello guys! So I have noticed that I am getting so addicted to blogging...HAHA can't help it is so much fun to blog about how much fun I am having recently that is pageant related! So I wanted to make a blog about my fundraiser for my platform...Operation Smile! I have known of this organization since I was little and with having this birth defect of a bilateral cleft lip and palate, I was personally connected with this. When my father would tell me to turn it to a channel the commercial was on for Operation Smile, I felt so bad for those kids who couldn't have the access like I had to doctors and surgeries. I wanted to make a change. I thought it would be cool to donate to my platform before the pageant to show how much I really do care and want to make a difference. But my boss suggested to do a fundraiser through the month of August for Operation Smile. So I did and I started actually in Mid-July and I already have more then my goal is! My goal was $240 which is enough...

MISS BL...ROUND 2!! LET'S DO THIS!

HEY YALL!! It is so close until the up-in-coming Miss Brainerd Lakes pageant! I am super excited! God has prepared me in multiple ways for anything He has planned! I have given it all up to Him!! I am doing my best this time around not to focus so much on what anyone else is doing rather focus on what God has placed in front of me. I seem to fall into this trap of thinking someone else is WAY better than me & I have NO CHANCE in achieving the title. Those thoughts need to be thrown out the window! I have always thought those kind of things when a pageant came about! I try to stop the thoughts but it seemed it just always happened! THIS YEAR is gonna be different. I'm changing my thought process & my whole outlook. I can't wait to make new friends, memories & continue to grow. This will be my sixth pageant...MAYBE THIS IS MY TIME...MY TIME TO GROW AND EXPERIENCE MORE OF WHAT THIS SYSTEM HAS TO OFFER. To be honest, I don't know but I do know I trust God!...

New Dreams, Challenge Yourself!

I truly think if you have dreams, please challenge yourself and not settle! I believe that is what I have been doing with pageants. No matter who or what brings me back in, at the end of another pageant I feel these same feelings. It's just not where God has me going in life. Let me paint you a picture of how it happened. It is the end of the pageant, it went by pretty quick and throughout the whole evening I felt off. I didn't feel as confident like I normally do with pageants. I tried my best as I possibly could. They handed out overall (throughout the 3 titles) individual awards. One miss contestant got two the other got one. There were three of us Miss Contestants. As we went up for the title I knew I wasn't gonna get it. The runner up was announced...not me. The title holder....not me. Shocker? No not at all! I've competed for 5 years....7 pageants (including this one) and I've always lost. I've won Miss Congeniality which is such an honor don't g...
