Saltines challenge?!

"The saltine cracker challenge or simply the "saltine challenge" is a competition in which a person has 60 seconds to eat 6 saltines (also known as soda crackers), without drinking anything; all the crumbs must be eaten too. Although the challenge sounds easy, it is actually very difficult, because the crackers quickly exhaust the saliva in one's mouth." 

Sister Williams threw down the challenge and Paul was eager to give it a go!

 Kinda hard to chew when you're laughing and others are laughing at you!
Okay dad you've got 11 seconds! YOU can DO IT!
 Okay, maybe not...

 The next ones to step up to the challenge. A whole lotta giggling going on!
 Laughing and cracker crumbs don't mix- hence the cracker spray in the air!

 I think Sister Cannon was giving it a "courtesy" try...
 Two left not gonna win this time!

So Paul thinks that he can fit all six crackers into his mouth- Yup big mouth it is!
 "Even though six saltines can fit in one's mouth all at the same time, and a minute is plenty of time to chew, the resulting mess of crumbs resists swallowing."  

Ya think?!!!

 Lookin' kinda like a chipmunk here!!!
 So the 3rd time is NOT the charm for Paul. He gave it a good go, but FAILED in the end!
Always a fun night when the sister missionaries come for dinner!
