NASCAR BABY!
Well, for the last 13 years, Mark has been dying to take me to a nascar race. We've been a little busy having babies and more babies and more babies, so this was my year! Last weekend we went to Phoenix International Raceway and saw more then I ever could have anticipated (If you've ever been to a race, you know exactly what I'm talking about :))! Honestly, tho...nascar fans are the nicest bunch of people...yes I saw plenty of the stereotypical fans - (I have never seen so many missing teeth and men without their shirts on and sagging grandma's) But honestly, I have never been around to many nice drunk people!!! :) We took Jordan and Nick with us and had the time of our lives! It was SOOO much fun! I'm hooked! It's amazing at the complexity of it all and I loved every minute of it! Here are some pictures of our day...
The view from our seats. We sat right on curve 4.
Jordan and Nick listening to Uncle Jame's headsets. He had it tuned in to Dale Jr's radio so that they could hear him and his pit crew talking!
We got "Pit Passes" so we got to go down into the pit before the race. This is picture of us standing on the race track. Jordan has become very "anti-picture" and Nick decided to put a bracelet in his mouth for the picture...nice :)! Dontchya love how we support our driver with our shirts? :)
This is our friend Doug, Jordan, Mark and Uncle James at Dale Jr's pit.
Jordan and Nick sitting in front of Dale Jr's tires at his pit.
The boys are standing in front of Dale Jr's Semi-trailer.
Nick with the 88 gas can!
Here were are again!
As they were clearing us off of the track before the race began, we were able to see the 88 car being brought out on the track by the pit crew!
The boys with their matching hats...they were so excited!
Nick got a little tired near the end of the race... It had been a long day, but the boys were troopers and had a blast. Can't wait for next year!
