Oct. 11, 2007 - JBQ

This past weekend my girls competed in their first JBQ (Junior Bible Quiz) meet of the season.  James and I are coaching their team this year.  Our team is all girls: 2 second graders and 3 first graders.  These girls did great.  They came in 2nd place as a team!  I was so proud of all of them.

This will be Lulu's 3rd year quizzing.  She was very reluctant to buzz in the first two years.  But this year is a different story.  She got four perfect quiz outs and 30 points in the other match.  She ended up placing 4th in individual high scorers.  We were so excited for her.  She was grinning from ear to ear.  A quiz out means they get 6 questions correct in one match.  After that they are out of the match for that round.  This eliminates one child dominating the whole match. 

This is Monkey's first year quizzing.  She did great!  She scored in every match and even got one perfect quiz out!  She ended up placing 11th in individual high scorers.   Not bad for a 5 year old.... 

I am so excited to see what God has in store for my girls this year through JBQ.  They are learning details about God's word and memorizing scripture.  It was definitely a proud Momma moment . 

I'll try to post some pictures soon.
