Minnesota Pageant Life

GOOD EVENING YALL, I am so excited to say there is only 3 weeks until Miss Brainerd Lakes! Honestly I am so excited to make the best memories and have the best time! No matter what happens, I have a feeling something GREAT is gonna happen! Today I had the best time at the Bridal Expo at the Brainerd Curling Center! I got to meet new gals and see fantastic old friends! I cannot wait to see who else is competing this year! But um...today when I was modeling I tripped a few times...the dress was a bit long even with my heels! Lets just hope that doesn't happen on-stage when it matters! it was still SO MUCH FUN TODAY! I finally worked out the kinks in my talent and I feel ready as can be! Now it just needs to be pageant day haha! Also every weekend I post a new video for my platform on my facebook platform page! Check it out if ya like! https://www.facebook.com/Every-Smile-is-Beautiful-378964405594004/timeline/ I hope to vlog during the day of the pageant...if I remember dur...

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!...

Hey Y'all!! So it's been a while haha. Well let me let ya what has been going on pageant wise in my life. So I have been planing on which pageants I was going to compete in this year, of course in the MAO (Miss America Organization). At first I was going to compete for the title of Miss Midwest but it is actually a little too far for me to travel to. And just randomly speaking, if I were to get the title I felt it wouldn't be fair if I couldn't completely commit to serving out the job. So I will not be competing for Miss Midwest but the next closest one would be Miss Coon Rapids. :) With Miss Coon Rapids, it is much a little closer for travel comfort and it's close to my sister, brother-in-law, nephew, & niece. Also it's a close place to an awesome shopping center! I cannot wait to see where God takes me in pageants this year. So far in this new year He has blessed me with a incredible new job & an incredible closer relationship with Him. I have le...

Hello everyone! So I really haven't blogged in a while. Here is the run down of how everything went at the Miss Brainerd Lakes/Central Lakes Pageant. My interview was awesome & I was able to do my Cindy Lou Who impression! Too Cool! I did my best onstage & rocked talent! Didn't drop my baton at all! I made some awesome friends as well and was reunited with old ones! Then comes time for crowning.... The Miss BL contestants were last. First they announced the Spirit Award winners for Teen and Miss. The teen 'Miss Congeniality' was my buddy, Mariah!! She also got first runner up for the Miss Central Lakes OT! For the miss....ME!! I received the 'Miss Congeniality' for the Miss! I honestly was taken by surprise. I never had my name called out during crowning for any award well only once but at a weird moment. It was at the Miss CI Pageant 2012 and it was the Life Achievement award; it really wasn't much. It was never given out before & never given ...

Hello all of my blog readers, Wow ok so let me say the Miss Brainerd Lakes Pageant is THIS WEEKEND, October 18th!! I have so many emotions I just don't even know where to begin lol. First off, I want to say thank you so much to everyone who has been supporting me and sending me well wishes! Every single one of you mean so much you don't even know! THANK YOU!! So moving on, I have been practicing non-stop for the past about 5-6 months for this pageant (whoa) for talent, walk, & interview. Also preparing physically for fitness...I'm going to admit I have slipped a few times. But come on if you saw a McDonald's you would want fries too haha! There isn't much to really report in this blog because not much has happened yet haha. I will do my best to update you on pageant day! But I do ask one thing of you if it's not too much! Please join me in prayer for interview & for the pageant. Thank you! If you want to come and watch all of us contestants ...

HEY!!! Who is excited for a pageant next month....THIS GIRLLLLL! Only one more month until Miss Brainerd Lakes 2014...wow it is so insane. Reason I say this is because I have been practicing most/all of the summer and now it is finally on the way. I'm always practicing talent, interview skills, and walking. Also since I mentioned walking...I bought these new heels and my 'lanta it is such a difference from my old ones! My old ones were plastic across the foot and ankle. They were always hurting my feet when it came to the crowning part of the evening. But now I got a sort of knock off of Johnathan Kayne heels and yes baby my feet are happy happy happy! :) Also I did some research about my favorite duck family, The Robertsons! The beautiful daughter of Jase & Missy, Mia, was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate. This is the exact from I was born with. When I found that out that made me extremely happy mainly for the fact I feel like I can relate to them more! Little ...

HELLO everyone! :D It has been a while since I have spoken to you it seems! Well let me update you a bit of course on what is going on pageant wise in my life. So I have been doing my best to get pageant swimsuit ready!! I feel I am the best I can be health/fit wise right now! I don't want to over work myself and get too crazy so I am doing things at a slow to moderate pace. I am perfecting my talent & adding new tricks! I do not think I told y'all this but I figured why not tell you now because you will find out anyways! I will be doing a baton twirling routine to the song Dark Horse by Katy Perry for my talent! I cannot wait to perform it. I am always practicing & making sure I remember it all lol. But it should go smooth. It seems like when I hit the stage; my walk, talent, onstage question, & also offstage in private interview things go amazing & perfect!! Trust in God, that is the answer! I have my evening gown, swimsuit, talent outfit (need the shoes...
