I have had a busy month of December. I went and got three angles of the angle tree and got donations for that. What an amazing experience. The director of Salvation army took me on a tour of the building to see all the donations. It was amazing to see that our community can come together and help families in need. There was over 75 bikes and three rooms filled of toys, games and clothing. Amazing!!!!!
My mom and I also got five winter coats for the coat connection and droped them off at Taco Johns. Its a great feeling to be able to help people in so many ways.
Went to the Miss Iowa send off party in Davenport. It was great to see my first Pageant sister Jessica Pray Miss Muscatine/Miss Iowa. Her wordrobe is beautiful, and her taleant is superb!!! What a beautiful voice Jessica has! I wish her the best of luck at Miss Iowa and praying for her safe travel. GOOD LUCK JESSICA PRAY!!!!!!
Tonight is the Prairie Rose Schlarship in Burlington Iowa. Cant wait to go see some of my pageant sister and meet some new pageant sisters!!! Good luck to all the ladies running for a title tonight!
My year as Miss Muscatine Outstanding Teen is almost over. :( Im going to miss working with Kindra Platt and Ashley Brown Vicki Platt and all the other members of the board. I have grown and learned so much through this program. Its been an honor to be part of such an amazing program!! I am going to miss you all so much!!! I have alot of good memories from the last year. The one that sicks out the most is our trip to Chicago with Kindra, Ashely, and Jessica Pray. Kindra ran into the door, and we laughed so hard. It was a great time. Thanks ladies for an amazing year. Good luck to you and your next title holders. Hope to stay in touch in the future! Of course I will see you at future pageants and hopefully I will competing at the Miss Iowa/Miss Iowa outstanding Teen.

Well I know its been awhile since my last post, I have been very busy the last several months. I am still collecting shoes for my platform Soles4Souls. Currently I have collected over 2000 pairs. I am working on another shipment so my numbers will go up even higher.
After Miss Iowa week I was in the 4th of July parade in Muscatine, Grandview and West Liberty. I really had alot of fun and enjoyed seeing all my pageant sisters.
I started back to school in August at L & M High School. I really like the smaller school it is like everyone is family there. I have made alot of new friends and some really nice teachers. I went to my first homecoming dance at L & M this year with a group of girls, we started with pictures and out to eat then to the dance. I had a good time.
September 24, 2011 My mom, my sister and I packed up the truck to go see a Taylor Swift concert and went on a girls weekend away, we went to Kansas City Mo. We left on Friday morning, decorated my sisters truck with Taylor Swift songs, and drove 8 hours to the hotel. Last year we got to meet Taylors mom Andrea and this year we meet Taylors dad Scott. Next year hopefully we get to meet Taylor Swift!!! We had a blast at the concert!!
I went to the pageant school where Katie Stam spoke about her experience with the Miss America, she was awesome and I loved hearing her stories. I had to leave a little early due to volleyball, but I still had fun while it lasted!
Well I think this is it for now, I will try to blog again soon.

Wednesday.
I had my interview today! It was fabulous, although I don't quite remember all of the questions they asked me, I know it went great. All of the judges are great and there wasn't one of those "scary" judges you always think there will be. After my interview I got to move in my wardrobe and get ready for talent rehearsal, at first my CD started skipping and I was a little bit nervous about that, but the second time through it was fine. Then came dress rehearsal. It was great, production number look fantastic, all of the walks and turns look great, it will be a great opportunity to be able to attend Miss Iowa and Miss Iowa Outstanding Teen this year!
Thursday.
I am going to Skip-A-Long Daycare this morning to work with the little kids. After we're done we are having a Children's Miracle Network presentation at the hotel then we are done for the day up until about five, then we have talent warm up and then prelims begin! Hope to see you there!
Lots of love,
Brooklyn

Miss Iowa Outstanding Teen week!
Monday, day two!
We went to the Putnam Museum too volunteer at the titanic exhibit which was very cool and interesting. If you go to the exhibit the first thing you receive when you enter is a boarding pass with a persons name that was truly on the titanic. The card has several facts about your person and tells you what class they were in. At the end of the exhibit there is a memorial wall with names of who survived and who did not make it. Since my person was in the third class, sadly I did not make it. After we found that out I was with Taylor Wiebers and Jessica Erbst we talked to one of the tour guides and she said that the saying about who died and who lived was two out of three people lived, which was really weird because Taylor and Jessica lived and I had passed away. After we left the Putnam Museum we went to the Fountains, a senior living home, and performed our talent, everyone did great!
Tuesday, day three already!
This morning we went and were guests on the radio station, B100, it was so much fun Tony, and Brian were hilarious, always cracking jokes. Once we were done with the radio station we came back to the hotel and took a brake then off we go again. We went too Workout with Ray, I was very pleased with the turn out of the workout, I was afraid it would be all stretching as the miss' had described it too be, but it was great. We worked on love handles, calf's, thighs, and abs. At 2:30 p.m. we will be going to the Fountains again, but this time too watch Miss America Outstanding Teen competitions. I'm looking forward to interviews tomorrow morning, I'll tell you how I thought it went, and I can't wait for everybody too be at Preliminary rounds and finals on Saturday!
Much love,
Brooklyn Heuer

Little Miss Muscatine, Taya Melendez!
I have known little Taya since I was about ten years old, this girl has been through so much in her life fighting against cancer. Taya is very into pageants and loves to be with her family and friends. For her talent she danced to a song off of dance central for the wii. Her father mentioned, "What do you need a dance teacher for when you have a wii?" I know that Taya has worked very hard too earn her title and will have a fantastic year as little Miss Muscatine.
Miss Iowa week!
I'm looking forward to this week being able to talk to all of the contestants and the Iowa board, today was sort of a "laid back" day, we had a tea with all the contestants, Pauli Mayfield, and Aly Olson. Then dinner afterwards with the same people. Finally came rehearsal with Bruce Brown, we got through evening gown walks, and part of our production number. I am having a blast with Jessica Pray, Elizabeth Davidson, Jessica Erbst, also many other contestants. Even though it is the first day we all have spent together I feel as if it is going to be a great week and we all will get along very well. Even though only one girl will walk away with the Miss Iowa and Miss Iowa Outstanding Teen 2011 title, we all will walk away with our heads held high and congratulating the new title holders.
Much more blogging to come this week!

Hello Everyone!
I hope you are having a great weekend and would like too hear some of my stories. I am preparing for Miss Iowa Outstanding Teen competitions as you know, by keeping up with current events, having many mock interviews and getting out into the world volunteering at places like Ronald McDonald house, the Library, also many other places. I go around to schools talking about my platform Soles4Souls and the three main things I want to get across too the kids are, what soles4souls is, what is does, and how they can help. I got involved with Soles4Souls because for some odd reason i was watching television one day and the news came on talking about this boy who had been donating shoes for quite a while now and I already had a thought of helping world wide, not just locally, so once I really looked into Soles4Souls, I knew what I wanted too do.
I went too Chicago to have a meeting with Hop Models and Talent I gave Lyndon a picture of me and he said we would touch base again some time next week. He wanted more material from me, we emailed a few times and now I am waiting for Tuesday too recieve an email from him.(:
