Other Competitor:Jeffrey 42 seconds

Event #6: Karate-the Judges couldn't help but intervene

The judges could not just sit there and watch the fun...they had to join in.It had been a long day and the judges were exhausted.

HILARIOUS!! We miss you, and all the fun things you are always doing. BTW--I think Amanda has found her calling in life. She did an excellent job with the pics and narrative.

Love you!
