Prelim's for Mrs. Minnesota-America 2008, Friday, June 6th!

On Friday, June 6th I attended the prelim's to Mrs. Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin America pageant. All three states were competing in interview, swimsuit, and costume and what a fun day it was! Here I am with good friend and contestant, Ann Marie Moore, Mrs. St. Paul just waiting to compete in swimsuit. It was great meeting all the girls in all three states. Everyone was so excited for the pageant to begin and it was a tough competition all around.

Here I am with Holly Ernst, Mrs MN 2006 as we wait to enter the prelim room where we got the chance to sit with the judges and watch each state compete in swimsuit and costume.

After prelim's were done, I got the chance to take a picture with judge Denise Loo who is the president and founder of Happy Buddha Tourbillon Watches. She gave a gorgeous watch worth $2,750 to the new winner!

Here I am with Jayne Black, Mrs. Wisconsin-America 2007 and all the judges.

During the interviews, Mrs WI and I had to go record our farewell speech at the recording studio, SPNN in St. Paul.

Here is Mrs. Wisconsin-America 2007, Jayne Black getting ready to record her farewell speech.

Good job Jayne!
