Mabel’s Labels is pleased to announce the ten finalists of our “Wish You Were Here” Contest. We came up with the idea for this contest after reading and hearing so many stories about bloggers who were unable to attend the BlogHer ’09 conference last week in Chicago.
We asked BlogHer ’09 attendees who they wished could have been there with them at the event. The winner will receive an all expenses paid trip to for BlogHer ’10 in New York City and so will the blogger they wished was there.
Thank you to everyone who recorded a video and shared it with us. It was a blast meeting everyone and watching your fantastic entries. Here are the top ten finalists!
Leticia from Tech Savvy Mama wishes that Jessica from A Parent in Silver Springs was at BlogHer’09
Amanda from High Impact Mom wishes that Dawn from Painter Mommy was at BlogHer’09
Kim from Prairie Mama wishes that Lara from Better in Bulk was at BlogHer’09
Donna from Spuddy Buddy wishes that Shannon from Everyday Stranger was at BlogHer’09

Wow! Thanks so much for choosing me as a finalist! I’d love to bring Jessica who was my inspiration to start blogging after my stint as a guest blogger on her local family resource, A Parent in Silver Spring. She is a wonderful woman who is idolized by our community for making it easy to find fun family things to do in the DC Metro Area but she’s the most down to earth person you’ll ever meet and would be extremely grateful to be able to attend BlogHer next year courtesy of Mabel’s Labels!
Thanks so much for selecting me as one of your finalists! I am so excited about the possibility!
YAY… I’m so excited that we are among the finalists! Thank you for choosing us

This was an awesome idea you had! I can’t wait to see who wins. I wish I had seen you doing the videos so I could have entered a friend. I can’t wait for BlogHer 10!!
Looking forward to BlogHer10 and hope I can go. Two thumbs up for Crunchy Domestic Goddess.
