The instructions were plain and simple: Draw your "best day ever." Sabrina Brady did just that and it's landed her quite literally front and center in all of Google's glory.

Brady, 17, was crowned the national champion of the site's fourth ever Doodle 4 Google contest on Wednesday, where students grades K-12 from all over the country submit their artwork to the competition, hoping to see their masterpiece intertwined with Google's iconic home-page logo.

Brady, a senior at Wisconsin's Sparta High School, scored the top prize for her work titled "Coming Home." The illustration shows her racing into her dad's arms upon his return from an 18-month deployment in Iraq.

After reviewing thousands of entries submitted over a two-month period, Google selected finalists from every state in the country and asked users to vote for their favorite.

"Her creative use of the Google letters to illustrate this heartfelt moment clearly resonated with voters across the country and all of us at Google," Doodle team leader Ryan Germick wrote in a blog post after announcing Brady the winner.

Brady doesn't just get to showcase her masterpiece on Google's home-page display; she also won a $30,000 college scholarship, a Chromebook computer and a $50,000 technology grant for her school, according to the tech giant. Google says Brady will attend the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in the fall.
