At the Amazing Race today, McKenna and I had a great time with Team 6. We came up a little short on winning the event but all of us had a great time. Probably the best part was the first clue. It said something like "find the flag in the dirt area" and we all went running all over the various dirt areas of the church grounds. We were all hustling and running like mad to cover the entire "dirt area". We finally realized the flag that we were looking for was on the playground. Too funny, because that is where the first clue was! We were so far behind that the judges gave us a good 5 minute score and we moved on to the next challenge.
One of the most fun challenges was to make a Marshmellow Eiffel Tower using toothpicks and marshmellows. I think we had the best time of the day on this one.Of course, the day would not be complete without an outstanding
message by Monty Sharp. He talked about the need for us as men and parents of girls that we needed to think about the word hurt and make it a positive opportunity to grow together with our daughters. H.U.R.T. is about honesty, unselfishness, respect and truth and was a great way to end the day.
A big thanks from this dad / daughter team for a great time of fun, entertainment and bonding. Thanks to Bob and Kristi Gideon and the team from All Pro Dad's. We always have a great time at these events -- you should make them a priority with your family. Next up -- something for Valentine's Day.
