Miss Iowa Week! Day Three

What a day!? We all got up very early to do radio interviews at B100 and Star 93.5.  It went really well! I had a lot of fun.

After our interviews we went to a work out with Ray.  Holy cow, seriously kicked my butt! But it felt really really good!

After our work out we got lunch then I took a nap!! Later we went to The Fountains and watched the Miss American's Outstanding Teen pageant.  Then to an amazing dinner at the Blackhawk. (BURGER and FRIES!!)

Tomorrow competition begins with our interviews and I am soooooo excited!! We also have our dress rehearsal  getting ready for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday competitions!

Very excited for everything that is happening! Hope everyone is coming to cheer all of us on!!

Until next time!

Miss Iowa Week! Day Two

Day two was even more fantastic than day one!! We spent the whole morning at the Putnam Museum learning how to run  the exhibits! We all went through the Titanic exhibit! It was awesome! I also made center pieces for a gala they host for their sponsors.  I felt really important going through all the EMPLOYEES ONLY doors!

After eating lunch at the museum we headed to The Fountains, an assisted living facility to show the residents all of our talents.  It went really well and we got a chance to talk to some pretty sassy ladies!!

After leaving The Fountains we had some down time, so we ate (of course!) and rested. Then rehearsal and another short trip to the hot tub :)

 I am having an amazing week so far! Can't wait to see what the rest of the week has to bring us!

Nighty Night!!

Today we started out at the Miss Iowa Tea Party then dinner at the Blackhawk Bistro (delicious!!) We had rehearsal in the evening, which was great. I really enjoy working with Bruce Brown! After rehearsal we headed up to Becky's room to chat and ate TONS of great snacks!! Lastly I took a trip to the hot tub with a couple of amazing girlies!! :)

Hey guys!! Sorry I haven't blogged for a while, but it has been a busy couple weeks!  


Saturday I had Small Group festival for choir and our women's small group (Women's Triple Trio) got best in center!!! A perfect ballad!! 


I also took Josh on a $200 shopping trip! It was great we got lots of toys and stuff at Toys-R-Us!  He's a great kid and I can't wait for his bowling birthday party! 


So I got an idea while watching one of my favorite shows "Cupcake Wars!!" I want to have a Cupcakes for a Cure bake sale to raise money for the Children's Miracle Network! I am hoping to bring it up to my principal sometime this week. If anybody wants to make some awesome cupcakes to sell let me know, you can e-mail me at taywiebers@hotmail.com or if you're my friend on facebook just shoot me a message!! :)

April 1st!

Hey all! I got my paper work for Miss Iowa's Outstanding Teen today!! I am so excited for this year's pageant.  Orientation is coming up fast and I have lots of paperwork, shopping, and photo shoots before I'm totally ready, but it's all worth it.  


Well, school is almost over! This year has gone by so fast, I can't believe I am almost a SENIOR! Andddd my birthday is right around the corner :) I am super excited to have my birthday party at Incredible Pizza! Me and all my friends are gonna wear crazzzzy wigs and par-tay! It's going to be awesome! Tried out some new wigs, it was pretty interesting! I like going bald and natural though. But with out all the support from my friends and family I don't think I could have gone through with it, so thank you guys for being there for me!! Love you all! <3

March 29th!

Hello again!
I hope everyone is out enjoying this beautiful day! :) I cannot wait for spring weather. It is also almost Lumberking season, gotta love that! But anyway, my grandma informed me of a 12 year old boy named Max Low.  He has been battling leukemia since he was 5.  Max Low is now trying to reach a goal of one million get well cards sent to him, Max-a-Million.  Since he made this goal public he has received over 23,000 cards!! They are receiving about 2,000 a day! He has also shown improvement since this has all started, doctors say that they will see if his body can run on his own white blood cells. Otherwise his father has generously offered his bone marrow, seeing how it is a 90% match, to his son. I brought this story to my principal and the kids at Clinton High School are going to be making cards for Max too!! So think about this story, the little things really do effect a recovery! If you would like to send "Mighty" Max Low a get well card you can send it to:

Mighty Max Low

P.O. Box 111

Neola, IA 51559

You are also welcome to add a dollar into the card! Think about it, $1 in one million cards, that would be amazing!!

March 28th!

So for my first post I would like to tell you all about the last few weeks! In the last few weeks I have meet the most fabulous family, the Hornes.  Julie and Jeff have 4 young boys, Joe, John, Josh, and Jordan. Josh is 7 and he was diagnosed with leukemia on August 13, 2010.  He is the coolest kid I have ever had the pleasure to meet.  In the last few weeks we have been to Happy Joes, bowling, University of Iowa Hospital, McDonald's, church, and just hung out at his house. When I went with him to his first maintenance treatment in Iowa City I got to meet his doctors and nurses and his awesome Grandma! We all had a lot of fun (besides poor Josh when he had his procedures)We also have been to his school together a few times. For those of you who don't know, I shaved my head to raise money for kids cancer. So on Thursday I went to his school and both of us revealed our bald heads to his class. They LOVED it! Me and Josh are definitely "bald buddies!!"
I'm so glad we all met and I really hope Josh is loving it as much as I am! :)
