Let's Go Racin'

The kids love NASCAR racing and motor sports in general. Matthew likes it more than Evelyn, but they both look forward to race day on Sunday. There is a local dirt track close by that we have wanted to take the kids to for a while, and Saturday night we did.




Super excited.. and they have their hearing protection ready to go too! :)


That would be my son RUNNING up the hill to the grandstands. He was SO excited he couldn't stand it! So cute to see him so happy to be at the track!




Totally in his element!!

She sure looked cute, but the flying dirt clods and dust really upset her, so she didn't have as much fun. Doug eventually took her down to a grassy spot away from the track for her to read the book she brought.

The dust wasn't fun for Matthew either. He was so conflicted... he wanted to watch the races so bad but also wanted go home away from the dust which was stinging his eyes. He stuck in out for a while then was done. We were there for a couple of hours and learned a lot about the track. We will be back, but come a little more prepared next time.

A fun family night none the less, tho!!
