Happy Friday!
You guys... you guys,
Yes To Carrots announced the winner of their
Yes To Stylista
contest today...
Me... Holy Moses.
I don't even know what to say!
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
I am honored, amazed, so thankful, and most-definitely shaking... and maybe crying a little.
OK, you know me better than that. I'm crying a lot.
This is an honor.
Here's the story—
It started with a contest... that I heard about through the grapevine from my amazing friend, Danielle.
She mentioned that Yes To Carrots was looking for their next "Stylista" to represent the brand.
Knowing me and my Bye Bye Beehive project, she immediately emailed me and suggested I enter.
I submitted my photo and asked you guys to vote.
You did! I'll be forever grateful.
With the help of your votes, I made it to the Top 10,
and was then sent a bunch of Yes To products, and asked to make a 2-minute video.
I have no idea how to do videos,
so I enlisted my trusty friend and photographer, Taylor, to help me out.
I submitted the video back in the end of October... and then waited.
And waited and waited for what seems like eons.
Today, we got the news.
The news that I won.
Whoa.
I am floored. Excited. Blessed. Overwhelmed. Thrilled... so thrilled.
THIS is only the beginning.
So, would you like to see my video? It's about time I showed you.
Then, after watching mine, please go watch the videos and say hi to the other finalists (who are amazing).
I don't know how they decided. Each video was unique, well-done, and so entertaining!
Enjoy!

And then... just for fun...
Originally, I had wanted to include one of my backflips (shown before here),
but once the editing process began, it was clear that there wasn't a good place for it.
So guess what?
You get to see it now. Consider it an "outtake."
Backflip in 3, 2, 1—
Aunie Sauce readers, thank you!
Thanks for voting, for visiting me each day, and for being a huge part of my story.
Do you know what?
Tomorrow, November 10, 2012, is my one-year Aunie Sauce blogging anniversary.
This is the coolest and most amazing way to celebrate.
Yes To—thank you guys so much.
I can't even tell you about the tears of excitement that streamed down my face when I found out.
I'm still in shock.
I'm so excited and honored to be the next Yes To Stylista!
I can't wait to see what this next chapter brings.
Until then—what do YOU say YES to?
