I'm sure you're thinking, "how hard is it to wave and look pretty, right?" But I was glad all of you were on time and thank you to Aimee, Jacey, and Bri for helping me in the morning...much appreciated. If your family took any cute pictures, send them to me and I'll post them here.
I HAVE YOUR DRESSES FOR THE PRODUCTION NUMBER AT MY HOUSE....call me, and let me know when you want to come get them. I am leaving out of town on monday and will be till friday night. I would highly recommend calling me BEFORE I leave so that if alterations are necessary we will know way ahead of time. So call.
Thanks again girls, much appreciated. Don't forget the FUN RUN on Saturday at 8:30 am...You have to be there and have your sponsors done. Please make sure you have it taken care of. We will see you saturday!

I'm excited to announce girls that Emily Clarke who created Winkfotos has let us know that she will be the official sponsor for Miss Iron County...meaning whoever wins she will be donating your session and the picture that will be in the Miss Utah magazine and more than likely all over town. If you are not familiar with Emily, here are some examples of her work...obviously most of them are of my family since I only have those on my computer. But they are so good
PS...
You can ask questions in the comment box, I check it every day. That way you don't have to email me and maybe someo fthe other girls have the same question.

FYI about Bronzing for you girls...
HOW TO USE BRONZER
BY LAURA HIGBEE
· If you have a light complexion, use sheer bronzers with pinkish or peach shimmer. Avoid bronzers that are too brown, as they can make your skin seem muddy or dirty.
· If you have a medium skin tone, you are very lucky and can probably use any bronzer. The best shades for you, however, would be gold or brown with a tiny bit of orange.
· As for dark-skinned ladies, brownish-red bronzers look the most flattering on you.
Apply bronzer where the sun naturally hits, such as the tops of your arms, shoulders, chest, and on the face- temples of the forehead, bridge of the nose, chin and cheekbones.
Cleavage- Sweep a line of bronzer between breasts to create a shadow (the shadow that naturally occurs when you have cleavage). Be sure to blend bronzer.
Abs- Take some bronzer and go along your natural oblique curves on the sides, not too dark though, just like shadowing on a picture, then follow the natural center ab cut with an even lighter bronzer stroke or shade, then lightly go across if you want the full pack but it will look less fake if you just do the sides.
Sculpt your leg muscles by putting bronzer right where the calf muscle starts.
TIPS
· A wide and fluffy powder brush will work best.
· Ideally you should never choose a bronzer that is more than 2 shades darker than your natural skin tone.
· Always make sure you blend the bronzer in well.
· If you have really dark skin, you can try creating cleavage by using a shimmery highlighter that is two shades lighter than your complexion.
· Don’t over do it.
· Bronzer should enhance your natural beauty, not dominate your complexion.
BRONZER VS BLUSH
Blush is reserved for the apples of the cheeks. To find the apples of your cheeks look in a mirror and smile. Use gentle, sweeping motions starting at the center of your apple, and move up and outwards towards the corner of your eye and up to the temple. Blush is ideal for brightening up pale/fair skin. Bronzer creates a sun kissed complexion and unlike blush, it isn’t restricted to just the cheeks.

CMN
This was in the email that the state sent me a coup[le of years ago when they started the whole CMN thing....
This really is a simple process. When a contestant registers, she can immediately send e-mails to all of her contacts explaining what she is doing for the Children's Miracle Network. If only 20 people give $5, she is done. It really is a very obtainable goal and we, as a State, are very excited about this partnership. Click on this site and follow the instructions from there. http://www.missamerica4kids.org/
Thanks Hailey for asking, I'm sending this to all the girls in case they are confused as well....

Here's the video girls...
-Please make sure that it is LEARNED before next workshop so that we can clean it up. If you are struggling or need help please let Angela or I know, I'm sure you could get together with one or more of the other girls. For those of you "non-dancers" (like me) it might make it LOTS easier to learn if you speak it while you do it. You'll feel like an idiot but it'll help you learn it better and faster.
-Please don't forget to email me your bios...thank you Kristin!!! Thank you for doing it right away.
