Mr.Wyoming.....

Friday night some of my friends and I went to the Mr. Wyoming pageant that one of the sororities put on. One of my friends, Adam, was in it. It was a lot of fun to watch, and it was totally different from any pageants that I've ever watched. It was much more relaxed then a pageant that girls participate in. Boys are funny and out of control and just don't care about what the crowd thought about them, they were there to have fun, and they did it without people thinking it was weird or over the top.

They started off with all the contestants doing a dance, after that each contestant came on stage and told a little about themselves and their lifestyle, then they came out in their formal wear, following that there was an interview section, the last portion they were judged on was the talent, and right before intermission where the judges were going to decide who was the winner, everyone came back on stage to do the dance one more time. There was a short intermission and then the results were in. It was a great time, full of laughing, and Adam ended up winning Mr. Congeniality.

This is a video of part of the dance they did. I didn't know they were going to do it again because it wasn't on the program or I would have recorded the entire thing, but you get the idea!


Earlier that night we had a Relief Society activity. At our "Fall Fiesta" we made little turkeys out of cookies, frosting, candy corn, and chocolate covered cherries. It was really fun & they are super cute and easy to make. You use the frosting as a glue, spreading it completely on one cookie and place the candy corn around the edges, on the other cookie you put a big blob of frosting and put the chocolate covered cherry (or something else that is brown and round-shaped) on top, you then put the two pieces together and let them harden. I added eyes & a beak using sprinkles and the end of a candy corn because I wanted it to have a face.
