After three LONG LONG weeks of amazing challenges starting with 20 bloggers to just 1 that included running to Walmart for pictures with a greeter:
middle of the night DH picture taking while he was sleeping, finding a blogger to represent every state, dressing like Britney:
and singing to me over the phone the National Anthem (personal favorite challenge).
The winner with the majority vote (although it was SUPER CLOSE), as voted by the standing jury at the contests conclusion, that takes home the title of Americas Next Top Blogger and a vacuum donated by Toni at The Mud-Bug is………
Dore, we wont leave you empty handed. Email me for your runner up prize.
Thank you to all the players, to our visitors for putting up with challenges for weeks on end out of the norm around here. Starting in June we will be running The Amazing Blog Race. If your interested in signing up, grab a partner and let me know in this post. If there is enough interest, we will run it in June time frame.

your vote wasnt needed. It came to 4 emily, 2 dore…so even if you voted for dore, emily would have still won.
once I had a majority, i took the post down and put this one up.
I can’t find anything on here past challenge #2 for the final three. No challenge #3? No vote? Where in the world? I can’t find anything that happened after Thursday night. The list said I was on the jury, right? I am so so lost right now!
@ Emily:
I didn’t get to see your video and vice-versa… wonder if she posted them anywhere…
If not, send me your URL to video!! I wanna see!

Thank you so much, Toni, for donating the Hoover Stick Vacuum! I will be posting about it on my blog when it arrives and will definitely tweet and Facebook about it and your cute blog!
And a BIG thank-you to the jury. I’m sure it was a very tough decision. I did suck up a bit in my blog post but I doubt you all saw it. Just in case, here it is: http://georgietees.blogspot.com/2009/05/why-i-should-be-named-americas-next-top.html
It includes a recap of my Top 10.
What is going on? I swear I was on the jury but I still can’t find where anyone voted…..when did this happen and WHERE?
COngrats Emily! Please email me your shipping information so I can get your vacuum shipped to you toni(at)mud-bug(dot)com
Congratulations Emily!
Dore & Emily – uh oh watch out!! Have fun ladies!
And Dore, vacuum or no our new BTFF status was worth the weeks glued to the computer!
P.S. And now I can put a voice to the face!
I’m game if Dore will be my partner. It will pretty much guarantee the win!
Congratulations to Emily!!!
Emily and I definitely want in on the Amazing Blog Race as partners!! Everyone should be afraid… very afraid!! lol
