Their first task was to find a puzzle piece hidden in an Easter Egg and give it to the owner of the house we were at. After finding lots of empty Easter Eggs, Success!!
This was a common scene throughout the race. All the girls huddled around the clue trying to figure out where they were headed next.
Our next stop was at Kermit's awesome primary teacher's house. We are so sad that they are moving soon.
Once the girls got inside they encountered their first road block. Several of the cups had a special marking inside. The challenge was for each girl to find a specially marked cup. The catch? The bottoms of the cups were covered in M&Ms and they had to eat the contents of each cup to see if it was one of the specially marked cups. They had to keep going until they each found one. This was fun to watch.
Here the girls had to trade brownies for their next clue.
The firefighters were sure glad to see the girls....and the brownies!
Our next stop was at one of Felicity's amazing activity day leader's house. Here the girls had to unlock the clue. Four keyed locks and one combination lock with the clue: the days in February, one dwarf is missing, Felicity + Kit(One of Felicity's friends who was on the race, name changed for safety!!) This proved to be tricky, but they eventually figured it out. Did you? (28, 6, 25)
Before they could race any further the girls got to put together a dozen get well tote bags which they filled with things like crayons, coloring books, stickers, pencils, puzzles, etc. They were told to take the bags with them and continue racing.
Each girl had to eat an ice cream cone without touching it. If they touched their cone, they had to purchase a new one and start over. They had $10 for this leg of the race! Here they are trying to work out a plan!
This one was also very fun to watch. While we were there a lady approached us and asked if we were part of the "real Amazing Race"!
The next stop was Felicity's Young Women's president's house. (How is my sweet girl in young womens?) Here the girls got to make two fleece blankets. It was a beautiful day so we sat on the front porch and did it!!!
Our next stop was the library. The girls were told to find a particular book to find their next clue. Can you spot it?
One of the funniest parts of the day was watching the girls get out of the taxi! Graceful, right?
Our next stop was Shriner's hospital where the girls were able to donate the get well bags they had made.
It was a great birthday party that I wouldn't have been able to pull off without the help of lots of friends. To those who let us use your homes, your cars, your time, a huge thanks!! I am so grateful for the good friends Felicity has here. I love these girls! They are all so much fun!
