We took the kids to the raceway last night (Got a freebie pass for 2 adults in the mail & kids under 5 get in free, so it cost us $5 for Douglas to get in! My idea of a family night!)
Douglas and Drew got to try out some kids race cars… Both kept trying to find out how to turn them on! (Lucky for us they’re push start, or the kids would have driven off into the sunset -or parked cars, whichever came first..)
And they’re off! The kids happily sucking down some sugar while the cars race by…
Oops! First crash of the night! Yellow car and Orange car bonked into each other.. then Orange car bonked into the wall..damaging it enough to need a tow off the track.
Drew is very concerned about Orange car. There he goes hooked up to said tow truck!
Now on to the midget cars! They don’t look too small on the left, but check out the guys standing around the car getting a tow on the right! (little blob of blue and pink) Teenie! I think they just picked it up and set it on the tow bed! Ha ha ha...
Ahhh… now the funny cars (like my technical jargon?).. another wipeout, with a quick recovery.
About 2 hours into the racing, and Drew is getting bored. Imagine that? A 2 year old getting bored? Even with loud racing cars zooming around in front of him? Sheesh!
He’s decided to be goofy for a bit….
Love this picture on the left… one of those ‘candid’ moments that you sometimes catch. And then our monkey decided to prove his heritage by swinging on the stair rails for awhile…
Needles to say, once we had to start chasing Drew up and down the stairs, we packed it in and called it a night. Altogether we lasted about 3 hours. Dudley and I commented on how ‘preppy’ and overdressed we felt…. us with no tattoo's, tank tops, wife beaters, short shorts, cigarettes, or crooked teeth. It was definitely redneck-ville. But we had us some fun!
Sounds like a lot of fun. Levi would have gone crazy had he been there. Cute pics!
