Truck Races

I don't know if you buy Hamburger Helper at all but I was at the store the other day and saw that if you buy 3 Hamburger Helpers you get a family 4 pack to the truck races at the speedway for free.  I can't pass up free so Hamburger Helper it is!!
 We have never taken the kids to the races and thought our ear plugs would work.  Not so much!  The trucks did 164 laps and shook the seats every time they came by.

 The kids loved when the trucks stopped in pit row.  Those guys are crazy fast.
 Hayden was really into the races she ohhed and ahhed the most.  We did see a lot of out of control cars spin out in the grass and one poor truck lost both front tires and had to drive with sparks coming out to get to pit row.  The kids were really worried about that one  :)
 After about a half hour Jason went and bought 4 sets of ear muffs.  They were an investment but now we have them and will have to start going to more races to use them. Or firework displays, or gun shooting, or rock concerts... I'm looking at the positive.
Plus, my baby could maybe become the ear muff spokes baby  :)  Doesn't that face make you want to run out and buy some?  I had to hide them from Tyson, he keeps wearing them at home so he can't hear me when it's time to do homework.  Gotta love that boy!!

  1. We actually had tickets for this race (not through Hamburger Hamper, but someone gave them to us) and then we totally forgot to go.

    Speaking of Hamburger Helper I have never had it!

    Ryan is uber cute, and will make you tons of money when her baby modeling career takes off.

  2. We've never gone to the races before, but it looks like a cool experience...especially for free! And I love Ryan in the head phones, what a cutie pie!
