our own little prize winner of salt lake city, utah!


after watching the prize winner of defiance ohio,
  amber decided she'd like to try her luck at a few contests of her own.


so she started out with a bang, entering a local promotion sponsored by subway, and morris murdock travel.
it was a little contest where the participants were  to submit a video of themselves singing while holding up a card blocking their faces from the camera.  they could pick any known song of their choice with  the winner of the contest scoring a trip for two on a 7 day mexican rivera cruise, including air fair and a $500 gift certificate to subway!

and do you know what???

she won!  
 oh, yes she did. 
a big shout out to all my facebook friends, family members and fellow church members for voting!  (get with amber and i'm sure she'll buy you a sandwich of your choice for your efforts  ;)

here's the clip of the song and video she submitted:




and here's a little clip of her appearing (for about 15 seconds) on our local morning show after the big win, singing a different song:



that is our awesome friend john, adding a little flair to  her number, on the drums.

next stop...our krista on the price is right, later this month!
any suggestions or helpful hits to get her called up to the stage?

13 SPEAK:

  1. So happy to hear that she won. I love the clip that she submitted, and her back-up dancers. She really does have a beautiful voice.

      I think Krista just wrote or called in for tickets. Pretty sure anyone can do it.

  3. Way to go Amber. I liked the drum thing in the background.

    Krista is so pretty they'll probably just have to pick her. If not, tell her to show some cleavage but only modestly, of course.

  4. Thanks for the shout out mom! Good luck Krista. I heard that they ask you a few questions before the show. Tell them something crazy about yourself, like you freak out if someone steals your boiled eggs. Not that that is true of course, but, you know...just a suggestion. ;)

  6. YAY for Amber! So fun that she won! And Krista on TPIR? She needs to wear a shirt that says "I want to have Drew Carey's babies" and she is sure to get on
