It's over!... And... I have great news!! I got first place! It was so awesome, and the best part was that I got to see my friends, which some I haven't seen in almost a year! I ended up with a score of 94% which is pretty good and I'm happy with my score. I know that this year I did it for the Lord and everyone even my judges said it was evident, which was just amazing... I'm so happy that others could see it and my one lady judge said that God was just speaking through me. It was such an encouragement!
Leaving was the hardest... having to say goodbye. I pretty much cried when I finally had to say goodbye to DaneƩ. It was hard, but we'll probably see each other again on May 12Th which neither of us can wait for! On the way back the others wanted me to sit in back with them so I had to take as much time as I could for my eyes to dry up! I know some guys saw me, but they were nice enough to not say anything - they knew the reason! :-S
Anyway, everyone did a great job! I'm so happy and can't wait for Nationals and everything else for TFC (Talents for Christ) that is involved! My friends from other churches who also placed are: Mary L - 1st; Sara L - 2nd and Thomas C - 2nd. And then from another church: Joshua F. - 1st; Julie F - 1st. Great job guys!
