2016 New Me

Since I am now a Miss contestant, in college, and a growing woman, I have decided to make some new healthy decisions. I realize that being healthy and physically fit is not just beneficial for your body, but for your mind as well. I encourage everyone to find a local gym, or online program to help you reach your goals of being physically fit and active. I am thankful that my community college has a gym that students can use. I also love training with Swole Sisters here in Tulsa. Swole Sisters is a gym located on 71st and Riverside and is run by Allie Meehan. She strives to teach woman how to lift correctly so that we can go into any other gym and workout with confidence. I wouldn't be where I am today without Allie. Thanks Girl ;)

Go after your dreams! If your dream is to be fit, then go sign up at that gym and work on meal prepping and eating healthy! If your dream is to get a degree, go and enroll at your local college! Anything is possible is you try hard enough!

BodyTrends Christmas Party

This Christmas season I was asked to appear at the BodyTrends Christmas open house. I met so many people and had a lot of fun! I talked with one lady in particular that was very interested in my title. She was from Broken Arrow and had no idea we even had a pageant. I love meeting people who don't know about this system because I get to tell them all about it! I tell them the amazing things it has done for me and others as well. I thank BodyTrends for inviting me to this event and greatly appreciate that people are so interested in the Miss Oklahoma pageant system

Miss Broken Arrows Outstanding Teen 2014

On November 23rd I was honored to be crowned Miss Broken Arrows Outstanding Teen! I am so excited to be representing Broken Arrow for a second year! I love everything about the Miss Broken Arrow board and am so happy to be under Dani Delso! Dani was Miss Broken Arrow when I was Miss BA Outstanding Teen 2012! Dani is now the teen director! I have much planned for my year as Miss BA's Outstanding Teen and am excited to speak about my platform, H.E.L.P..

Dani and myself after the pageant! So excited!

Amber Lenington, Miss Grand Lake's Outstanding Teen 2014!

Saturday night was a blast! I had so much fun spending the last day as MGLOT. I arrived and saw Bailey and my directors, then I got to meet the judges and have a mock interview. After we all had lunch and the girls had interviews, I went to Ms Chenos house for an afternoon dinner with the judges and Miss Oklahoma. That was so fun! The show started at 6:30, it went by really fast. As the night went on, I performed my Mr. Monotony Musical Theater dance I did at MOOT, and I also performed my Mellow Saxophone Tap dance I won MGLOT with last year. At the end of the night Amber Lenington was crowned the new Miss Grand Lake's Outstanding Teen and Clare Holloway was crowned the new Miss Grand Lake! It was a bittersweet moment. During the pageant, we said goodbye to one of the directors, Jeanne Whitely. She's moving to Tulsa. Jeanne has been with the Grand Lake board of directors for 36 years and she's now leaving us.. That was a sad moment but she went out in style. We love her to pieces and she will always have a special place in all of the former titleholders hearts. I'm excited that I have been so blessed with amazing people. I just thank the Lord for everyone He has placed in my life, and for a wonderful year as Miss Grand Lake's Outstanding Teen 2013.

Last of my Reign...

I cannot believe that my year as Miss Grand Lake's Outstanding Teen 2013 is almost over. It has gone by so fast and I have loved every minute of it. I want to say a special thanks to Elizabeth Whitehead. She is my pageant coach, and I would not know what to do without her. She is an amazing woman and has taught me so much. Being a former contestant, she really knows the "ropes". Elizabeth owns a fabulous boutique, Amaranth Collection. Everyone should visit her store, because it is that amazing. I also want to thank my director, Cheno Kennedy. She also is a HUGE blessing. She has guided and giving me so much support. Even telling me the little things like, I looked great or reminding me to be myself, really did brighten up my day. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable year I will cherish forever. :)

MOOT Re-cap

Miss Oklahoma was a blast! I always  love going, and getting to know more people that come from all over the state of Oklahoma. Everyone there is extremely supportive of everything you do. I have no words to say how wonderful this pageant system is. Its Amazing and definitely a blessing. The First prelim was on Thursday, and I did my talent. I danced a Musical Theater called Mr. Monotony. Then Friday morning, I competed in active wear and evening gown with onstage Q&A. Active wear is my favorite. Friday night was  finals night, and I was so excited when Ashten Vincent was crowned the new MOOT! She is a wonderful Teen and has such a sweet and kind heart. I did not make the top 11, but I was fortunate enough to receive a Non Finalist Talent Award. I love the opportunities you have as a title holder to reach many lives through your talent and platform. The Miss GrandLake pageant is coming up very soon, and I'm excited to pass on my title to a young woman who will continue to impact communities such the Grove and GrandLake area.
