MIss Oklahoma KickOff!

Saturday, June 1st was the first event for Miss Oklahoma. It was the Masquerade on the Red Carpet! This event was sponsored my BodyTrends, and every contestant had to make their own mask. I was so impressed with all of the creative masks everyone had! This was such a fun event. Starting with a runway show, with a runway that lights up when you walk on it! Then pictures with Miss Oklahoma, Alicia Clifton, and Miss Oklahoma's Outstanding Teen, Julianne Thomison! Then the night ends with a photoboth and mingling with others. So fun getting to see my pageant sisters again! I cannot wait to hangout with them, I am ready for hours and hours of fun rehearsals. I am open and ready to see what God has in store for me this year.

Contestants Day!

Today was Contestants Day! It is a day that all contestants competing for Miss Oklahoma, and Miss Oklahoma's Outstanding Teen get together and show their talent and find out the last bit of details we need to know about the pageant. You get to meet new friends and see old friends you made last year. This is one of my friends, Summer Stolz, and she is Miss Green Country's Outstanding Teen 2013. I met her last year at the pageant, and I had a blast being her Secret Sister(an assigned gift giver)! I believe that this pageant system is about building relationships, and growing up to be the BEST young woman you can be. Being in this system you experience so many things that people my age would not normally do. I know that I learn and grow every day from being a part of this pageant system, and it has shaped me into the person I am today. I LOVE being a part of  MOOT. 

Miss Grand Lake

First of all, I just want to say how beyond excited I am to have won Miss Grand Lake's Outstanding Teen and have the opportunity to go back to Miss Oklahoma's Outstanding Teen. Having this title will allow me to continue to have more opportunities that will allow me to spread the word of Hemophilia. I am looking forward to attending a health fair in September and a few more appearances that will inform people about my community. As this pageant year goes on I am excited that I gradually get to welcome teens to the MOOT family of 2013.

Hemophilia Walk and attending more pageants!

On the January 26, I met with the Oklahoma Hemophilia President and the Oklahoma Hemophilia Event Director. This meeting was to inform my family and I about the upcoming Hemophilia Run. This run is to raise money, not only for the Hemophiliacs and their families that live in the Oklahoma area, but also for the National Foundation for reasearch and development. I am now a new team leader for this run and I working to gather donations and runners to participate. Contact me for more information, or visit www.okhemophilia.org.

In January, I also the went to watch the Miss Route 66 and Miss Sooner State pageant. There I got to spend some time with my MOOT 2012 sisters. The girls did a Wonderful job! I also loved seeing Gentry Johnson up there as the emcee. I was her Oklahoma Star for Miss Oklahoma when she was competing and we had so much fun together. She was a great inspiration for me when I decided to start pursuing a pageant title in the Miss Oklahoma's Outstanding Teen System.
