Down To The Wire!

Well...we're now "down to the wire" with getting ready for The Amazing Race casting call on Friday, just a few days away. It's doubtful Mark will get any sleep between now and then...thank goodness for Ashley!

Over the weekend we created our 3 minute video that will be submitted as part of the overall application package. A couple of segments have been posted here for your viewing pleasure, along with a few "out-takes". We decided not to post the entire video...don't want to jinx our chances! We also completed each of our 13 page written applications, extra photos, and passport requirements. The video was a lot of fun and was done completely ad-lib. Ashley is completely comfortable and it really shows, while "Get over it, Mister" was pretty much the mantra of the morning!

As far as what we'll be doing during the casting call, we have no idea...seriously. All we know is that on the CBS website it says, "Think you have the chops to be on the show?". Could be anything, but most likely it will be an opportunity for us to prove to CBS why we should be on the show or what sets us apart from other teams. We'll see.

This will more than likely be the last posting until after the casting call. Hopefully, the posting after Friday will be full of exciting news on how we're moving to the next level.

Thank you for supporting us!
