Monster Jam

We were originally planning a trip to Baton Rouge this past weekend to see my cousin Ryan, Rachel, baby Emma Grace, and my Aunt Carol. The weather, on the other hand, had other plans. We probably would have been okay, but with the several days of freezing weather that we have had, we decided against the trip. I am very thankful we did because our neighbor knocked on our door Saturday morning telling us we had water spewing out from the side of our house - the sprinkler line busted. Besides it's hard for southerners to drive in anything, but sunshine and rainbows:)

So instead I met up with Sarah, who had a Birthday last week, to celebrate. Here she is posing with her boy, Eric.

Saturday I decided to take Robby out for something a little different. Jaime and Maria were supposed to join us, but BP has been getting their money out of Jaime lately :(

We started at our new favorite Katz's deli (Katz's never closes) and ended up at MONSTER JAM! So much fun. We watched these unbelievably huge trucks jump, flip, break axles, spin, and catch fire.

Arachnophobia after a broken axle or two - the back wheel was dangling!

It was REALLY loud and stinky at Reliant that night, but we had a fun time. I am ready to go back! A few of our favorite trucks were Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, Amsoil, and Gravedigger aka Gold digger (that's what we kept calling it).
