America's Elegant Miss- Natural State Jr. Pre-teen 2022

Haven't posted in a while, but wanted to share that I am the 2022 Petite Miss Sweet Pickle. I wasn't sure if I wanted to get on that stage and now I'm happy I did. It put a smile back on face and I got to hang out with my pageant friends I haven't seen in a long time. I love local festivals !

Shouting good luck and safe travels on your way to Nationals to all my AEM pageant sisters.

Happy Birthday Mrs. Dana! Thank you for all of your encouraging words!

Happy International Pageant Day!

Thank you Hemistry Designs for being a National sponsor for AEM!!

In honor of National Autism Day here's a shout out to my Uncle Jordan.

Autism is a huge part of my family's life and we love every second of it.

Did you know that autism can impact anyone no matter if they are a boy or a girl, but studies show that boys are 5 times as likely to be affected?

Autism is not a disease. Love someone with autism, I do😁

Crown clips are amazing!! I am able to jump around and dance or anything without my crown ever moving.

Its been a great week! I am on the all As honor roll again and today I was given a token for being caught cleaning up trash in the cafeteria. I get to use that token in our new Book Machine in the library to get a free book for showing great Character😀

Saying goodnight, but wanted to share my favorite song before I do. I can't stop singing We Don't Talk About Bruno!! I love to sing and this song is just so catchy that I always find myself singing it. It puts me in a happy mood and makes everyone else sing and be happy too.

What's in my crown case?

ALOT of things!
My crown and sash of course😍
I have a comb, an extra hair band, and some shiny lip gloss because you never know when you might need them. There are cute magnets to glam up my sash in there and also some things from around my state that I hope to give away to someone when I'm finished collecting. I love my crown case and what's inside!

Caught up with an old pageant friend for some shopping and fun. We laughed so much and found some pretty awesome things.

I got something shiny and gold in the mail today! Thanks for my cute dress and shoes for AEM.

Before girlscouts tonight I noticed trash around the library where we have our meetings so I cleaned it up.

How do I practice self care?

One thing I LOVE to do is lay on our counter and let my mom wash my hair. Its so relaxing thst I have my friends doing it too!

A few others ways I practice self care is by staying active in sports and my all time favorite, family game night.

My favorite thing about AEM is the togetherness that it brings. Even though i have not met my pageant sisters in person , I feel close to them because of our shared love of helping our communities and encouraging each other through social media. I can't wait for nationals !

It's World Down Syndrome Day! Did you rock your fancy socks like me and some of my stuffy friends??

Today we celebrate all of the awesome humans out there rocking that extra chromosome! Here's to you and how amazing you are❣

Happy first day of Spring!

I'm looking forward to the flowers blooming, caterpillars EVERYWHERE, beautiful Arkansas creeks, jumping in puddles, and soccer.

Next up SuMmER☀️

Soccer season is back🎉
Today was my first game of the season. Lets go Grass Monkeys!!

My platform is The Best Friend Project. This is something exciting that I want to share to encourage others to get involved in their communities and just show love and support to each other .
I dont typically have any trouble talking, so I hope to use my voice and motto " I'll talk to you" to encourage others to speak up and talk to anyone who feels alone or left out. From personal experiences it hurts to be made fun of or not included. I want everyone to feel equal and not alone. So far By using my voice I have been able to collect many coats and winter items for kids in my community and donate them to a local help center.
Something unique about my platform is it's my Initials😁.
I want everyone to have a smile , a voice, and a friend. Be a friend to someone. You never know when they may really need one. If I can fill a sharing box and make someone laugh, so can you. Be the light.

If anyone would want to join in and be a part of my platform i would love to share it with you!

I was so excited to use my own money this morning to buy the car behind us breakfast at Chic-fil-a. I hope it made them smile😁

My pageant sister❤

Not only is she my pageant sister, she is also my #1 best friend of all time. She has crowned me, competed beside me, and taken many adventures outside of pageants with me. We act silly whenever we can and most of all encourage each other through every part of our lives. I am so proud to call her my best friend and pageant sister. Thank you for always cheering me on Layla Belle❣

Since math is my favorite subject i wanted to say Happy Pi Day everyone!

Did you know that on this day 110 years ago Juliette Gordon Low held the very 1st Girl Scout meeting with just 18 girls! She wanted to teach young girls that they could do anything even if it wasn't something society thought women should do if they just believed they could and fought for it.
I am so happy to be a part of a program that began so many years ago and continues to teach and encourage girls to be strong leaders. Thanks for being a great troop leader.

Another fun fact... The first girlscout cookies were sold in 1917😮

An early dismissal from school for a snow day is the best day! Isn't it beautiful!!

Mom always says I am the only me so stand tall and know I am worth it.

Be yourself and you will do great things.

You are only as strong as you say you are so let your invisible crown shine👑

Happy International Women's Day to all of you strong ladies

In honor of National dress day, here's to my favorite red dress.

From stuffed animals to real ones, I have always had a love for anything cuddly.
I love to incubate eggs from our hens and hatch baby chickens with my mom and some of my favorite places to visit in town are PetSmart and the animal shelter so i can see what cats are up for adoption.. I always wish i could take them all home.
One early morning a few years ago we found a 4week old kitten in the middle of the highway that had been tossed from a car and rescued it. We were able to take him to our vet for a check up and got the ok to take him home. We spent hours feeding and caring for him until we found the perfect home. That day is when I knew that a vet was what I wanted to be when I grew up. My dream is to one day work with all types of animals including blue and gold Macaws.

Fun fact Friday

Blue and Gold Macaws are my favorite animal.

Did you know that these birds are on the endangered species list? There are only between 300-400 blue throated Macaws left in the whole world and they can live more than 70 years. 🦜

I had the privilege of hanging out and reading to some awesome kids today at a local preschool. A few of the little girls were so excited to try on my crown. I love being able to spend time with my community and use my title to encourage others. Today I was a real life princess and I felt on top of the World!

Thank you His Kids Preschool and Learning Center and Patricia Brown for having me today!

Happy TWOSDAY everyone!!

I was sad to see one of our local sharing boxes pretty empty today so I filled it up😁 Helping others puts a smile on my face.
