Reflections Contest

You may remember back on Thanksgiving, Nicholas had access to our family camera (this is the reason we don't have any photos of the family) all day to take pictures for the school PTA Reflections Contest. Nicholas took some beautiful pictures throughout the day. He ended up taking one picture in particular that was really... WOW (the theme of this year's contest). He submitted it and only four students from Red Bug were asked to go on to the county level. Tonight Nick won an award for his photo. He was the only Red Bug student in the photography category honored this evening. He wished he would have gone on to states, but I think he should be proud of his hard work. I am so glad that he was recognized for this beautiful display of God's work.

We are very proud of you Nick!

This is Nick at the beginning of the night. We were so excited to see his work on display. It is the beautiful photo of the sunrise with the silhouette of the tree.

Here I am trying to get a close up of the display.

Nick was very excited to see his Reach/Gifted Teacher come tonight since he worked on the contest in her class as well. He just loves her, he'd spend all day with her if he could.


Before we left for the evening Nick went back with his award to look at his work...

just one last time.
