Mother/Son Amazing Race!!!

Saturday September 10th, Shawn and I had the opportunity to participate in the first ever Mother/Son Amazing Race here in Rota!  This was a MWR sponsored event and it was so much fun!  First we recieved an envelope with 7 clues to get us to different locations where we would have tasks to complete.

So we went to the driving range first, where Shawn had to complete the first task.

Next we decided to go to the Movie Theater, where Shawn had to complete another task!

After this we went to the CDC to find out what our next task was!  The next task was a task for the moms.  I had to look at a picture, then after being blindfolded, paint a replica of the picture we were shown!

Next we headed to the track, what could be in store for us next...looks like another task for mommy!

That task was fun, but hard!  Onto the bowling alley next!

Next stop the baseball fields, wonder who will have to do this one!

Next we make our way to the last task....onto La Plaza parking lot.

So, we finished our last task and the clues all said "if this is your last task, go to La Plaza."  We were at La Plaze, but weren't really sure where to go.  When we realized we needed to run inside, another team ran by us and in the door we all ran!  We came in 2nd place out of 30 teams...with a run to the finish line and not really knowing what place we were at the time!  Most importantly, Shawn and I had a great time working together and running all over base!
