Very excited Rose Marina Houser shows off her artwork illustrating the 5 C's of Arizona from the Arizona Historical Society 3rd grade postcard contest. Her drawing was one of 15 selected out of over 1,000 entries around the state. With family helping out at the pizza party held in her honor, she had quite a day.

Looks like good stuff!
