A Cupcake Kind of Occasion: Miss America 2013

Tonight 53 inspirational women from all over the United States will compete for the title of Miss America 2013. Fifty state title-holders plus three more contestants from the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands have spent the past week and a half in Las Vegas competing in preliminary competitions. It has all led up to the final night of competition tonight at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Vegas.
Glitz and Glam Cupcakes in support of Miss NE, Mariah Cook!
My family has hosted a Miss America party each year for the final night of competition as it shows live on ABC. This year, I didn't think the party could go without some glitz and glam cupcakes to help celebrate the special occasion. :) I found some cheap and super cute little crowns and rings to stick on top of cupcakes. They are the perfect finishing touch to add to my cupcakes for the party this evening.

This year is an especially exciting night to watch the Miss America pageant, because one of my dear friends, and Chadron's very own Miss Nebraska, Mariah Cook will be competing for Miss America! Over the past few years, she has become like a sister me.  We all love you Mariah and wish you the best of luck. Even though we can not be there tonight in person to support you, we will all be here with a bunch of friends cheering you on!
