Dale Jr.

Here is a picture of Junior that I took while waiting for the race to start.....so cool :)

Brickyard 2008~

We were invited to go to the Brickyard with Susie and Calvin this year. (Last year we were unable to attend) so this year we went!! We got there early Saturday morning watched qualifying, then a practice, saw the Goo Goo Dolls, then camped out Saturday night. We played cornhole and just enjoyed hanging out at the camp. We got up Sunday and went to the race, we had AWESOME seats! You can see in the following pictures how close we were to the pits and the winners circle. Thanks so much Susie and Calvin for inviting us...we had TONS OF FUN hanging out with you all for the weekend :0)

Cramped Car.....

What do you get when you take 2 kids who have spent a week with Mimi and Pappy and 2 adults who are going camping at the Brickyard for a weekend......you get A PACKED CAR!! Our car was packed to the brim with our stuff and the kids stuff. It made for a great and fun ride! Here are some the kids in the backseat...if you look close you can see all the stuff.



The girls wanted to take a picture of me, so here it is...
