The 3 amigos!!
I have been up to a lot lately! I crowned the new Miss Vergas 2012 on August 9th, Hope Livdahl, a senior at Pelican Rapids! I also competed for Miss Perham on August 10th along with 3 other lovely ladies! I received the 1st runner up position. A week later I moved into college at Concordia College in Moorhead, MN.
On Saturday, September 8th, I got up at 5:30 am showered and had my friends from the 4th floor of my dorm help me with my hair! I am a college student now and have to remember to save money wherever I can! I arrived at Weld Hall at 8:15 am and started to unpack and haul all of my wardrobe and props for my monologue inside. My good friend from the pageant world, Emma Hilgard, helped me haul in my vanity for my talent. She was a trooper!! By 9 am myself along with the 7 other lovely ladies competing for the title of Miss Moorhead, 3 young ladies vying for the title of Miss Red River Valley's Outstanding Teen (MRRVOT), and Miss Moorhead 2011, Ali Vail and MRRVOT 2011, Libby Schmidt were learning our Production Number choreography. We learned our Finale and all of the other walks we would be using throughout the night. We were then treated to a lovely lunch provided by Erberts and Gerberts. And before we knew it, it was time to start getting ready for Interview. After Interview we were treated by the Queen's Committee at Perkins in Moorhead. Siri Freeh, Miss Minnesota 2012, and Bailey Wachholz, Miss Minnesota Outstanding Teen 2012 joined us for supper. When we got back to Weld Hall, the 7 young ladies running for the first ever Red River Valley Princess (RRVP) had arrived and were learning their walks for party dress as the Miss and Teen Miss contestants were getting ready for showtime!
There was a lovely display of talent and beauty throughout the evening and at the end of the night 3 new girls were crowned.
I remember not having any clue who was about to be crowned. And when they announced the 1st runner up, I was kind of in a daze to say the least. I was so proud of Brianna Drevlow and all of her hard work! She was glowing all evening. Then Ryan, the Master of Ceremony, started to announce the winner and Miss Moorhead 2012...Contestant number 6, Makenzi Kovar!!! I remember this feeling of gratitude, accomplishment and utter happiness! I knew that all 8 girls had given it their very best and I was honored to have the crown placed on my head!
I am so very excited to represent my new home away from home along with my Teen Queen, MRRVOT 2012 Hailey Jutz and RRVP 2012 Alexis Moe!!
