From now on, call me America’s U.S. Miss Ambassador: 2010-2011

" This past weekend I went to St. Charles, Missouri for “America’s US Miss” Pageant. I had such an amazing time & I’m gonna tell you all about it!

I flew in Thursday night, and hung out with some good friends. We played Apples to Apples and I totally won! I’m a pro at that game. We also went to this cool Coffee Shop that’s open 24/7. Crazy huh? I didn’t get home until pretty late, but luckily I didn’t have to wake up early the next day…. At least that’s what I thought.

Friday morning, I was having a nice slumber until I woke up to a maid in my face, asking me “Are you sleeping?” I jumped out of bed and said, “Yea I’m still asleep..” So she left, and put the “STILL SLEEPING” sign on the door. I guess my Dad forgot to put that sign on the door before he left to judge the girls. Yea that’s right. My dad was a judge. It was so funny because I was looking at this paper with all the names of the judges and their occupation. There was an attorney, baby deliverer, Miss Missouri… and then: Savannah’s Dad.

I went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast that morning. Well, I went the next day too. I love that place. I had eggs, crispy bacon, yogurt, granola and wheat toast all for 6.99! AND Orange Juice! It was gooooooood :)

On the first day of the pageant there was a red carpet and fancy dinner. The dinner was intense. I didn’t know how to eat proper. Questions were running through my head like, “Am I supposed to use the first fork for the salad?” “Do I have to lift my pinky while I drink my water, just like in Princess Diaries?” “Why is everyone looking at me weird while my elbows are chillin’ on the table?”

We even crashed a dance party. Ok, we were invited. It just sounded cool to say that we crashed it. There was a Hoola Hoop contest that I was in. Of course I was the first one down. The Chicken Dance was the highlight of the night. I danced so hard with the kids.

The next day I performed for the final ceremony. I had the best time. I met so many cool girls. They were super nice. I was happy because a lot of them were fans of my music! Ashley Hansen did make up for performance. She was a sweetheart. Shout out to Ashley!

After my performance, Lorenzo the host called me back onto the stage. I was SO confused. I had no idea what was going on. Then all of the sudden, I was crowned America’s U.S. Miss Ambassador: 2010-2011!! I got a beautiful crown (that matched my dress perfectly) AND a sash.

Megan Wettach. You are so sneaky! I had no clue what was happening when Lorenzo told me not to leave just yet….You’re the best and did a fabulous job. Thank you so much for inviting me to be apart of the Pageant. I seriously had the best time!

I flew out on the 4th. Southwest Airlines gave out American Flag stickers & Tomato Basil Wheat Thins! Doesn’t get much better than that. Oh wait… it does. As I was walking to the Luggage Carousel, I saw two mini American Flags waving…. It was Marcus & Kendra! They surprised me at the airport! Not only did they come, they gave me Lucky Bamboo (which stands for happiness and health) & a fish! His name is “Commander Data The Beta”. He’s a purple/mustard yellow fish. He’s really pretty. I’ve never had anyone surprise me at the airport so it was really cool for Marc and Ken to do that. Made me feel special J

Sincerely, America’s U.S. Miss Ambassador: 2010-2011
