BUSY...BUSY...BUSY...

So, if anyone's been lurking on the blog to stay tuned to the days of our lives - here's the latest from the past several days...

Friday, July 20th - we loaded up the Quarter Midget trailer and headed out to the track so that Nick could practice driving his brand new car!! WHOA!! That new Jr. Stock is FAST! A.J.'s isn't finished yet but it is painted and he's a kid after my heart - IT'S VERY BRIGHT GREEN!! I'll post it when it's complete. But for now, back to the itenerary... so we get to the track and pull the cars out of the trailer and Mike makes a few adjustments. He then tells the boys to suit up so they can get out on the track - and...that's...when...we...discover...that...the...firesuits...are...at...HOME!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!

We had to go from trailer to trailer and beg to borrow suits for the boys to practice. UGH!! It's even worse that Nick and A.J. both were in tank tops and shorts. Thankfully, the Westhoff's had a spare fire proof jacket. The Hass's had a set of pants. And the lovely little Sid Ross (dynamite girl racer!!) loaned us a pair of jeans and a fire proof jacket, as well!! A.J. wore the first borrowed set of items and that saved his day. But the best part - Nick was lucky enough to get to wear Sid's rhinestone studded jeans and fire proof jacket - AND OF COURSE I GOT PHOTOS!! He was sooooo embarrassed that he's walk around hiding the "bling" on the back pockets!! Hee-Hee!! I have the BEST black mail photos!!

Despite the fact that my son can now say that he got into Sid's pants...YIKES!! - he drove the new car like a champ!!
