Our Last Full Day

So this morning when I woke up I couldn't remember where I was.. We woke up early (for once) and went to the award assembly. Texas was raking in the creative art prizes!! It was pretty disheartening to hear them call "Bethany.....Not West!" There was some other chick named Bethany from like gaybo Wisconsin or somewhere. It was awesome when they called Adam's name. Richard haha. I was pretty mad when we didn't win costume, because the couple who placed before us costume sucked. The girl had a paper collar, where mine was made out of gold fabric and had cute little jewels on it. Booooo. And we probably got points taken off because we didn't give enough historical evidence, when it said in the rule book that we weren't supposed to be graded based on what we said. And I didn't place in DI, though the girl who did put so many hand gestures in her performance that she looked like a windmill. Oh well, I have my dignity and she does not. Plus I'm just glad I placed in state because that got me here. :) Adam says "hi".

HOORAY!!!!

Adam won 3rd place in the cartoon category!!!!!!!!!!! Here's proof:

It was so exciting!! He had to go to the bathroom and missed his name being called, lol. I had to go pick it up for him. But anyways he beat like two whole tablefuls of cartoon entries!!

Cali Soft-Serve is better

Fun!

Soo cute ;)

Before our Spirit time. Texas FIGHT Texas FIGHT! (That's one of our chants).

Thursday Afternoon

We slept in really late this morning and then went and viewed the art exhibit... I was hoping my blank ink drawing would have a good chance of placing, but there were some really awesome drawings.. One was the portraits of five or six gods and goddesses done in elaborate detail, and another was of an intense battle scene. Needless to say my little Roman helmet didn't look so intimidating next to those. It was fun to look at all the stuff that had been made... Someone did a model of Daedalus's wings made out of the tops of forks. After that we went to our State meeting to vote on the next candidates for national officers.... BORING. It was really frustrating because people kept moving to talk longer about our options and crap. We also had to vote on which charity to chose, and that was chaos. One dude actually said that breast cancer wasn't as important as helping third world countries. Anyways, now we're chillaxing until dinner time. Then we're both gonna take a nap before the talent show and then our ridiculously late state meeting.

It took him long enough.
