I so wish that all of you could have been there!! When they called out her number (they did that instead of names) she said that she wasn't expecting her to be the winner at all!! The look on her face was priceless!! She would have really been happy no matter who the winner was.

Today is special because the Queen gets to wear her crown at school!!! And then, of course, she'll get to wear it on Homecoming day!! She also won a basket of gifts from the community and in it was a gift certificate to have her picture taken with the robe and flowers!! It's just all been so cool and couldn't happen to a more wonderful girl. I know, I'm her Mom but Jaci has such a wonderful personality that you can't help but love her.

Miss Kansas of 2006 told Jaci that she really needs to try out for Miss Teen Kansas. She told Jaci that she really lights up in front of a crowd and that's what they look for. She really encouraged her to go on and try some other contests. I'm glad that Jaci heard that from someone else because we've told her that for years. When she gets on a stage, especially to do her human videos, she is just in her element!! Jaci was excited about what she had to say!!
