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)
