Wow! This
year has gone by so fast! I couldn’t believe it when I was crowned 2011 Miss
Texas Junior Teen Cover Girl. This has been such a blessing and a great
opportunity. To start off my year, I attended the North Texas pageant in
Dallas. I had a blast, hanging out with my sister queens and helping out at
events.
During my reign, I volunteered with the Children’s Hunger
Fund and the San Antonio Food Bank, and walked for Cure Search for Children’s
Cancer, and the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Walk.
I had the time of my life at Nationals during November in
Anaheim, California. From the 70s party to the day at Disney, the fun never
stopped. I reunited with friends and made many more. I was excited to return
home with the title of National Cover Girl!
I also attended Texas open calls in April. They were so much
fun.
First off I give thanks to God for blessing me with this
opportunity. I want to thank the state directors, Steve and Kathleen Mayes, and
the staff for creating such an incredible organization. I also want to thank my
wonderful parents and family for their support and all they do. To my brother
Kevin, you may not have liked hearing me rehearse, but you make a pretty good
escort, and you always make me laugh.
To my amazing sister queens, it has been a great year
reigning with all of you. Whether we were taking fun photos, or just dancing
backstage, there has never been a dull moment. Don’t ever change, and I love
you all.
And finally, to my successor, an exciting year lies ahead.
Wear that crown well, and have fun. Remember to cherish the memories and
capture every moment. Be yourself and let your light shine.
and for the last time, here I stand: Your 2011 Miss Texas
Junior Teen Cover Girl, KeAnna Whisenhunt
