The team being introduced at the opening ceremonies. Each team had a brick to place on the wall they were building to fit this year's theme of "JBQ Builds the Kingdom". Last year's theme was "Shakes the Nation".
The finished "brick" wall.

Our girl!
The team & coaches after taking 37th place in the Nation. They were also the best Southwest ranking team at Nationals.
Hannah and her patch that everyone gets. I also bought her a JBQ medal to help remember it by.
Another photo op at the wall.
Teams only get one plaque so we have to order our own. Usually the team represents a church & the plaque stays at the church. But we will split the cost of getting a plaque for each family.
By now you've heard or figured out that God's Girlz went to Orlando, FL for National JBQ competition last week. They worked hard and earned 37th place out of 80 teams at Nationals. There are over 1500 teams Nationwide & only 80 teams get this far though so 37th place is pretty darn good. In fact, we lost by only 5 points to the team that took 5th place in the nation. It was an exhausting trip but much fun.
I'll post pictures of our down time later.
