The Amazing Race

Maysen had such a fun time at her Young Womens today. They did the Amazing Race. Maybe she liked it so much because her team won! She was partnered with Amy and Rylee. First they were given an envelope with a puzzle inside. When they put it together, it was a licence plate. Once they found the car, they also found who was going to be their driver. Heather Nutter was Maysen's driver. The first thing they had to choose was Count It or Down It. Maysen's team chose Down It (Maysen voted for Count It - surprise, surprise) They had to buy a jar of chicken and rice baby food and eat the whole thing (between them). Maysen did it! She ate the baby food! Man - I struggle so much to get her to eat, and there she does it - no problem.

Anyway, after the baby food they were given a map to someones house. When they got there, there they found out they had to ring the doorbell and sing a hymn. (It was Sister Orme's house). The next clue was directions to Andrea Tingen's house. They were mapquest directions, and the girls had to tell Heather how to get there. Once at Andrea's house, they had a bum war on the trampoline with the group that got there at the same time. Rylee won. They ran back to Heather for their getaway. (Heather had boxed in Joyce in case the girls lost...Maysen thought that was funny.)

The girls now had to make it back to the church and find Brother Acker. They found him in the parking lot! They got their picture taken with him and won the game. Maysen was quite proud and now wants to do this as a family. She said she wants it to take at least a couple of hours, if not all day. Yikes. Looks like someone created a monster.
