I'm following up the last post with the obstacle course that we did on the 4th of July weekend. We have been watching the new game show "Wipe Out" an American version of Ninja Warrior. The show is based around a giant obstacle course. The boys felt inspired to set up an obstacle course on our friend's property. The race started on one side of the property at the fence. After the horn we had to run and jump through 4 trees, then run into a shed and out the other side while grabbing a basket ball. After, we jumped onto one of two trampolines then over to the other which was under a basket ball hoop. After dunking the ball we had to run to the other side of the property and touch the fence. From there we ran through some bushes to the volley ball court where we picked up a soccer ball and punted it over the net. After clearing the net we ran over to the "army tires" which were really round pool inter tubes. From there we jumped onto a boogie board in the pool and swam over to the deep end. At the bottom of the pool were pennies, each with our own initials. We had to dive down and grab our own penny then jump out of the pool and head over to the lawn. At the lawn we jumped over over two chairs and "army crawled" under a bench. Finally from there we ran to the finish line! Wheew!!! It was fun, but hard! Matt Felt came in first beating Ryan by only seconds. The boys plan on another course soon, so watch out Matt, Ryan is coming for you!

I found your blog!! :) What is new? I hope things are going wonderfully for you guys. Life sounds great and so exciting. I am glad that I can keep caught up with you!! :)
Looks like you guys had a great time!! We missed you the other day, but I hope the bridal shower went well. Hope to talk to you soon!!
That sounds like so much fun! I want to do that. Now, if I only had a backyard like that. Maybe we could do an obstacle course in our backyard with Morgan and Taylor's bike, car and tricycle. Then we would run around to the front yard and dodge the thorns on the mesquite trees. See you next week!
We had a blast! I love the action shots. Super fun. We come back from UT on Sunday...we need to visit soon!
So, Matt can't call himself the real champion - I WASN'T THERE!
