Woohoo - it's finally here!!!

YAY!!! The wait is over...race weekend is here. We are busy getting ready...it was great to sleep in today even if it was only to 8am - compared to getting up at 4:15 all week. We are taking Rylee to daycare...she can go with us in a couple more years. We are going by my dad's friends to pick up some parking passes...definitely beats paying $10 to park EACH day!! Then stop by the store to stock up our cooler...we take all of our food and drinks because the prices at the track are insane!!! I just called Davis' school and emailed his teacher about him staying out today...he thinks he is very cool getting to do this! Apparently about 5 of his friends are going also so they won't be at school either.

Got to run...Duffer gets very anal if we don't get there early like he wants to and I am supposed to have Rylee to daycare by 9am...so I have 15 minutes to get dressed and get her there! I will update tonight with pictures!!! :o) )

Have a great time. We're going on Sunday. Bruce's work drawing for suite tickets landed on his name this race. I like the races, but I'm not crazy about sitting in the bleachers. I smell alcohol, and I just cringe. Plus they feed you in the suites! How cool is that? I'm spoiled that way.

You will love sitting in the suites...the first race I went to I won both stadium seats and suite tickets so we sold the 2 regular seats and sat in the suites. It wasn't my cup of tea...unless the weather is bad...because we didn't know the other people in there and the food had been out a while but I am glad I got to experience it one time! Myself...I love the adrenline rush you get from hearing all the noise and being so close to the track...it is AWESOME!!!! Let me know how you like it...it is one of the largest crowds I have ever been in!!!
