And the Winner is...........





I saved the best part of our day at Stone Mountain Park for its own post!

As we entered the park, we spotted the Pie Eating Contest. A certain competitive member of our family knew he had to become a contestant.

We arrived a few moments before the contest began - 12:30. The announcer quickly chose the junior division - three kids under 13. Then, on to the senior division (yes, Tommy is now a SENIOR). The first one chosen was a teenage boy. Tommy was quickly chosen second, and someone's grandma got the third and final seat.

The announcer quickly turned our last name into "Throw Kill" and managed to tell quite a few funny jokes with it! The crowd was very amused:).

The rules were given - you have 1 1/2 minutes to eat as much pumpkin pie as you can. The catch - yes you guessed, with NO hands!

Each contestant was adorned with a plastic garbage bag to keep their clothes cleaned.

Ready, set, EAT!

Mikaela and I cheered - GO DADDY!

Check out our video clip for the last 30 seconds!

The winners were announced - and yes, the Daddy won!
