Muddy Buddy #2

Another Muddy Buddy in the books! What a fun weekend!! There were 6 Northwood families that were competing in Muddy Buddy. We stayed at the Exotic Resort Zoo again. 6 families in 5 different cabins with a total of 14 kids!! Mike and I are so lucky to have such great friends. Everyone looks out for everyone else's kids....feed them, take care of them...it's awesome. And we all have such a good time together.

The kids found a huge dirt pile to play in as they were waiting for the Mini Muddy.

 Some of the kids in their "super hero" poses.

 Mike and I were buddies this year. Longer and harder course...but I think we did really well!!

 The start of the Mini.

 There he is....going by himself and doing an awesome job!!!

 Crawling through the mud...

 A race to the finish line!!

 He was so proud...and he should be!!!

 6 of the kids who did the Mini. 10 out of the 14 kids in our group went though. I think we represented Northwood Elem. very well!!!

 The muddy family!

 We went on the safari ride 2 times while we were there. So many animals to feed and look at!

 On Saturday night, we noticed Joshua and Brynn were  missing. Found them in our cabin eating a leftover Blizzard from Friday night when we picked up food from DQ. It was in the little freezer and I guess they found it and decided it would be a good treat for the 2 of them. So funny!!!

We managed to keep all the animals in the petting zoo out of harms way this year. But, there was one duck bite (it got Sophia's finger!), one deer trampling (knocked Rylie down and stepped on her!) and one lama chase (Jake was the victim).

Overall a great great weekend. It feels good to have done a harder race like that. It was fun to do with Mike...next year we hope to be a bit better. The kids had a blast and we all made some great memories!!
