Fundraising & Practicing...MY LIFE!

Hello everyone! So quite a bit has happened since I talked to you last!

First, CONGRATS to my buddy Savannah Cole who was crowned Miss Minnesota 2014!! I am seriously so proud of her. But I am, of course, so proud of all my buddies who competed for the title. Love y'all! I hope to be in your shoes next summer as I go for the title of Miss Brainerd Lakes 2014 on October 18th! Save the date!
As I mentioned before, every Miss America contestant has to raise $100 at the local level. I am so excited to say, thanks to God and my community, $100 was raised! I can't even imagine how many smiles these donations will create for families who need it. If you still want to give you are more than welcome to! I will still raise funds for CMN, go to my donation page to do so!

Second, since I raised the required amount for CMN (and still going) I want to do more for my personal platform, Every Smile is beautiful. Which is all about cleft lip and palate awareness since I was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate I really want to make a difference...because it only takes ONE to make a change. Through the Operation Smile website, I created a fundraising page. All funds go DIRECTLY to Operation Smile. The goal is $240, that is the amount for one surgery for one child. These surgeries are done by amazing professionals donating their time in third world countries (ex. Ethiopia, Ecuador, Cambodia, & more) and they only take 45 minutes. Please give ANY amount possible! Thank You & God Bless!

Much Love,

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...

New Pageant...New Memories!

Ok so now I believe I have decided that I WILL NOT be competing in the Miss C-I Pageant again but I will be competing in another pageant!! I was debating about which I should compete in and I believe I found one that is PERFECT!! IT IS THE.......... MISS MINNESOTA COLLEGIATE PAGEANT 2014! Held on August 17, 2013! I am so excited. I haven't fully registered yet but I will trust me! This will be so awesome because they are based on a woman's potential not the outer beauty! The stages of competition are -Personal Interview -Evening Gown -Fun Fashion -On Stage Question There is no talent or swimsuit! Dang that makes me so happy!! I do like talent and swimsuit but it is nice that I won't feel the pressure of finding a talent or making sure I have that swimsuit bod. I feel I am meant to do something bigger! I received some advice from Siri (Miss MN) and she told me about the time she applied to colleges and didn't get into UMD. But she took a leap of faith a...

2 A.M. Crazy TALK!

So as I am writing this blog when it is 2:30 AM!! I have truly bonded with these gals. We watched the 2010 pageant dvd and It prepared us like majorly for how it is going to be. Yes I did compete last year in this same pageant and know what it is like...yet I did forget how it felt up there. Eyes on you and you are being judged for a title you have been dreaming about. All you can do is try your best!! This is a blast and I love these girls like they are my true sisters. Sadly we all can't be crowned but IF I am crowned I would be proud and happy to be crowned to any of the girls. If I am not crowned I will be so proud and happy for those whom earn it! Lets hope and pray for the best for us all! And that these come together perfectly! Ok so I will be logging off and chatting with you later! God Bless! -Tiffany A Pageant Girl who has bonded with her fellow contestants that she feels like they are her sisters! *Copyright of this pic goes to Rashell! Left to right: Sienna ...
