And the first place is...

I'm back from my trip to Missouri. YAY!

By the way, we won gold for the Crime Scene Investigation competition. We were sitting in the stadium. And I mean, stadium. The place was huge, but people filled every seat. They broke the awards into three sections. Cosmetology came in the second section. The girl from Griffin Tech didn't win her section. We later found out she came in fourth. Finally it came around to announce the winners of the crime scene competition. Bronze went to Illinois. Then second place went to Florida. At this point we are terrified. We either placed first and get to go on the huge stage in front of hundreds of people or we get to disappoint Griffin Tech. They announce Griffin Tech as winning first! We all jumped up and screamed. Our instructor, who is a very serious person even jumped!

We got the gold medal (which is significant'y larger than the state medal) on the stage! We congratulated the other competetors and recieve our reward. The prize for first and second place was our very on fingerprint kit in a heavy duty crime scene kit. We were so excited! Over all of the excitement of the awards, we got to have a nice supper with all of the advisors and students in Post Secondary (College) Level from Georgia. And I finally went to sleep after some very important phone calls. :)

The plane ride back wasn't so bad. We had to go through some rain clouds with some bumps, but overall it was okay. I was greeted at Griffin Tech by a well missed hug and kiss from my boyfriend, Jackson. I have never been so happy to know where I was again! :)

Sunday was a big day. We got up extra early (7 am) to decorate for my graduation party/champion party. We had a crime scene set up for people to look at. Everything was decorated in yellows and blacks (like crime scene tape). It was a blast! I've never had so much fun in my life!!!!

Now I just have to survive Bible School for the next couple of days.
