Awana Games Third Place Finish

Even though the kids placed third, it was only by one point and this was a playoff. They were only two points behind first in the first round. Madison and her friend won the three legged race, as did Noah and his buddy. They won some relay's too. Nathan had been waiting to be able to run in the marathon (6 laps around the AWANA circle) since the first time he started T&T games. He got the opportunity to do that this year. Yesterday he was so nervous about it he threw up last night. After feeling better this morning we let him go. He ended up winning the race for his team. It brought tears to my eyes (and Mitch's too). I just love his competitive nature (at times its not pretty, but it really does motivate him to succeed).
