SELTC 08

Well, once again, it's been a GREAT weekend! We learned, we came, and we MEDALED!


We had a great time on Friday in Gulf Shores. The water was too cold, of course, but the kids had the best time in the sand. We came back a little rosier than we left home. Daniel learned that when you put sunscreen on, the eyes should not be ignored. LOL--he looked like a funky racoon.


In Mobile, the kids did SO well!


Daniel:


Service Challenge: GOLD


Bible Reading Challenge: GOLD


Bible Bowl: BRONZE individual (2nd highest in the youth group!)


Song Leading: GOLD


Speech: GOLD


Puppets: SILVER


Chorus: SILVER (I helped organize the chorus)


Bulletin Board: SILVER


Drama: GOLD


For a total of 6 gold, 3 silver, and 1 bronze! WHOO HOO!


Madeline: (her very first year to compete!)


Bible Reading Challenge: GOLD


Art: SILVER


Song Leading: SILVER


Speech: GOLD


Chorus: SILVER (with Daniel)


Puppets: SILVER


Scrapbooking: GOLD


Drama: GOLD (with Daniel)


and (drumroll, please!)


Bible Bowl: SILVER! and with the HIGHEST score in the entire youth group! They all got the same questions from age 8 to 18. And Madeline scored higher than any other in our youth group! Her very first year! And her score caused her team to score BRONZE!


For a grand total of 4 Gold, 5 Silver, and 1 Bronze!


We are more proud of our children than we can possibly say! Enjoy the pictures!
