Nascar Baby!

We packed our bags, dumped the kids and headed South to Vegas for some serious white trash fun! Our warm days were filled with shopping, pedicures, lunches on the lawn, more shopping, and then off to pick up the boys at the race track. Then we headed to downtown Vegas for some quiet dinners and good ol fashion Vegas fun!!

Travis spent everyday at the race track "working his magic" with the security guards, which led him to his most memorable moment.....JEFF GORDON!! He was down in the pits checking out all the cars when Jeff came right by him, so Travis of course made his way through the crowds to get up close and personal with his Nascar idol. It all paid off for him when Jeff autographed his pit pass! It made his day!

We had so much fun hanging out, but the big day was Sunday for the race! Travis was like a little kid on Christmas morning! The weather was gorgeous. Here we are moments before the famous "BOGGITY, BOGGITY, BOOGITY"

The race was great. Alot of cautions which made it seem to last forever, but still fun. Here we are looking like true Nascar fans! (wearing scanners so you can hear all the drivers talking to their crew chiefs) so white trash I know!

After the race we ran to our car and jumped on the freeway making it home right at midnight! Just like a fairytale ending!!:-) Thanks Mom and Dad for taking care of all the monkeys! They had so much fun playing and going everywhere all weekend! You guys are the best! THANKS!

You truly are WHITE TRASH!!! But we are happy for you two. Looks like Travis had a great time. That is awsome that he got to meet Jeff Gordon. We hope to be able to join you again next year. Glad you had a great time.

It was great fun. So nice to have both of you there with us--at least for the race. You are classy white trash.

So glad you had fun and what a moment for Trav...very cool. Kind of worried at how well you do the "white trash" thing but we still love you!
