Mrs. America appearances and experiences

The women at Mrs. World (76 contestants) were just amazing. I hung out and learned so much from all of them. My pageant coach and dear friend Holly Ernst came all the way to Vietnam and cheer me on...she got me all the way to 1st runner-up!! Really without her advice I would be a lost soul on that stage! She is in the photo with the fabulous red collared dress




These are some photos of my amazing time in Vietnam at the Mrs. World Competition, I was named 1st runner-up to the beautiful Mrs. Russia.... My family came to the competition and it was such a blessing to have them there...I didn't know it but I was actually 5 weeks pregnant during the competition!! Wow, what a blessing this past year has been and to top it off with a baby is just precious! Diane Tucker, Mrs. America 2007/Mrs. World 2008 (plum dress) was a judge so I couldn't talk with her while we were there (except during interviews :)) But it was great to see a familiar face!
