Beauty Pageants

No I have never done a beauty pageant so don't get that idea from post topic. When I was a little girl, my grandmother (dad's mom) and I would watch all the beauty pageants on tv. We would watch Miss America, Miss USA, Miss Teen USA, Miss Universe and all the other ones that were on tv. Whenever they were on, I would always stay the night at her house and we would stay up watching them commenting on clothes and how they looked. As I got older we would also comment on her talent and question answer. We would make it a whole girls night. As I started to grow and get friends and work, I would either tape it or we would watch it separately and then call each other during the breaks saying I like this one, no that one dress was wrong. When I went away to college I really didn't watch them much and kinda gave up on calling her when I did. Last night the Miss USA pageant was on and I ended up DVR it and watched it later on. Now I always have 3 girls that I want to see make it far, Miss Illinois because I from IL, Miss Missouri, since it borders IL, and then Miss Texas, since that is my home state. In the pageant the other night, Miss Missouri and Miss Texas were in the 15 then I think 10. Miss Texas went on to the top 5 and she ended up winning the pageant. It made me so excited and reminded me back of my childhood days.
