Miss America Pageant 2012

Last week was the Miss America Pageant in Las Vegas, Nevada.
It was AMAZING to experience. I was lucky enough to spend the week.

I had several opportunities to meet and talk with Teresa Scanlan, Miss America 2011.

I was able to meet designers like Sheri Hill.

Take in fun sights.

Enjoy DELICOUS food like this chicken with bacon waffles from Hash House A Go-Go.

Mango and coconut pancakes also at Hash House A Go-Go (we ate breakfast there twice).

BBQ Pork Nachos and Chili Cheese Fries from Cheeseburger in Paradise. Besides the great dinning opportunities there was the main event - the PAGEANT!

In the Tuesday night preliminaries Danica Olsen, Miss Utah 2011, won Lifestyle and Fitness in a swimsuit. She rocked it!

She was awarded a $1,000 Scholarship for her win. Here she is in her evening gown receiving her award from Teresa Scanlan.

Wednesday night was Danica's night to compete in talent. She is an amazing dancer.

Saturday night Miss Wisconsin, Laura Kaeppeler, was crowned Miss America 2012.

What a fantastic week. Congratulations to Danica Olsen, Miss Utah 2011. I was thrilled to be in Vegas to support her! I'm looking forward to the Miss Utah Competition this June.

Love, Hannah Harkness

You are also so amazing Hannah and it was such a pleasure to be with you and consult with you on your wardrobe! I could make a habit of this! Thanks again. You are amazing and have an amazing family and relatives.
