TARR 3 Corsicana

TARR 3 Corsicana was an embattled contest that swirled amidst the controversy of Grandma not following directions on giving clues (shocking) to a mean old lady downtown yelling at Lauren to...well...that's all I can think of but the race went to and fro and back and forth and finally ended with the Walker girls bringing home the bacon for their first win. Owen and John have now come in 2nd 3 times and really isn't that the more important thing? Consistency in being the second winner?

But congrats to Whitney and Mollie who seemed thrilled with their chance to kiss the tacky homemade trophy. It always amazes me that winning.....even if it's just a tacky trophy is soooo very important. I'm sure I've never been THAT competitive.

Team blue


Team orange....as in the orange people


Team yellow with a splash of pink


Team green....sigh...my boys NEVER color coordinate for the game.


The start


The spectators


The race organizers


People goofing and not ready!


The first clue


I forgot what they were doing here but it looks TARR ish


Note in the picture above and then this one....Owen made up some major ground on Whitney in just a short time.


And they're off once again!


Caitlin and Lauren are in last place....this was foreshadowing.
And John has found the car but Owen is still looking for the car.


I have no middle pictures.....just the beginning and the end.


As I said, winning is HUGE!


Whitney you are supposed to kiss the cup.


Theerreee we go


Tomfoolery. This huge canvas had to weather the weather on the way to Corsicana and then had to be placed in our car to protect the integrity of it.


People still milling about.


The TARR participants plus one. But she looks excited to be there!


The end of TARR for a while.
