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 for one surgery to a child through Operation Smile. But so far I have $580!!! I feel so blessed that I am being used to make a difference. Now I hope to raise enough to sponsor an operating table, which is $600...seems like it won't be a problem. :) As I continue this fundraiser through August...well when August comes :)...I will update you on how it goes and let you know how much it all comes to!

I also want to take this time to thank my workplace and sponsor in the pageant, Heartland Kitchen & Cafe for letting me do this and my wonderful community for giving to my platform!
Remember you are giving a new smile to a child who is going day to day thinking, "Why am I like this, why was I born this way?" Completely changing lives here.

Making a difference in the pageant world!

Hey guys. So somethings have changed since I last spoke with you. In my job situation, I have changed my main job to working at a local retail store, KJ's MiniMart and I will be starting my own daycare for my niece, Gabby, and the new baby when he or she arrives. I can't wait to meet my new niece or nephew! :) Now pageant wise, I will be holding a pageant workshop THIS coming Sunday! I am so excited. I will be teaching some young ladies I know some tips and tricks I know about pageantry. Also at the end of the workshop, there will be a mock pageant! I will judge & audit. Also there are awards that will be given out such as, best interview, onstage question, evening gown & talent (or fitness wear). I am unsure if we will be doing talent or fitness wear depends what the talents are. If things are not available to do some talents then I might give an option of doing a talent or fitness wear or just do fitness wear. Either way they will be weighed the same. Pictures w...

Oh My Gosh!! Today I received an awesome letter. Now I have been trying to get a hold of this pageant for a little while now and finally I got an answer! I have been praying for something to happen in my pageant life and for my pageant dreams to come to pass! The time has come!! As I went and grabbed the mail I was looking through and I seen a crown on an envelope. It read Miss Minnesota International Pageant!!!!!!! I was so excited. I could not wait to open it and see what it had to say. So i opened it and it said on the back that it was the Official Bio-Entry Form Preliminary to the Miss Minnesota International Pageant!! I just about cried! I continued to open the letter and There was an attached form to represent my county in the state pageant! I got so excited that I filled it all out and mailed it with the required photo!!! I wanted to make sure I could be in good-standing to be chosen. I am praying for the best and I am continuing to pray about it and hope that all will be we...
