NASCAR and Birthdays

So our good friends Tristan and Christine called a couple weeks ago and said they had won 4 tickets to the Nascar race in Vegas and asked if we wanted to come out and go with them. Kurt has been to a couple races but I have never been so of course we said "yes". They were so sweet to let us stay at their house and feed us which definitely helped us to save some money. We did go out a couple nights and play...I mean we were in Vegas! Thanks again guys! We had a blast!

Image This guys hat had a spoiler on the back with a flag. Earlier his wife was yelling to us with her homemade megaphone telling us how much she loved baseball and football. Maybe she forgot we were at a car race. I would have taken a picture of her too but she left and never made it back to her seat. I would've taken more pictures but I didn't want to be obvious.Image

Braydon and Lillie's Birthdays

We had a party with my whole family this year for Lillie's 1st Birthday. My aunt and uncle from Colorado were in town so we combined Braydon's 7th Birthday with it. We palyed the we and had cake and ice cream. The kids had a blast and of course the kiddos got spoiled! Thank you to everyone who came and made it so much fun for the kids! Also thank you so much for all the gifts! We love you all!
