So the past few weeks, Gracie and Brian have been making their Awana cars for the Awana Grand Prix that happened this past Wednesday. Gracie instantly knew she wanted to make a train like her favorite Emily of the Thomas the Tank Engine series. Emily is green with gold and red...as you can see from the slideshow, Gracie decided to use these colors plus so many others. It was beautiful!! She tied first place with her cousin Ephraim in design, and her super fast train took second in overall speed in her Cubbies category! But Gracie wasn't the only Jacobs in the house competing. Brian also constructed a car, like he has for so many years before. He was a little more excited than the kiddo, but I am told that is normal. Brian made a replica, almost exact, to the new 2008 Knight Rider car...known as the KITT3000! I am so proud of my husband, his car took first prize in speed! YEAH!! So, we brought home three trophies last night. And to make the night sweeter, Gracie's cousins won trophies (Hayden and Ephraim) as did her Aunt Becky and Uncle Mike! Good job family!! Way to go!!
