Matty at the Monster Mile

We were so lucky to be given free tickets to the Nascar race in Dover yesterday!  I am from Dover, and have never been to a race (by choice).  I never thought I would ever go to a race, but then I became mommy to a little boy who loves race cars. 

Grandma and Papa were invited to an event at Best Buy since they are some of their best customers!  They requested that we take their spots at the event, and the manager agreed.. so we were in luck!  We arrived at the Best Buy store early Sundy morning for breakfast, lots of giveaways, and a meet and greet with the Best Buy driver, AJ Allmendinger.

We had a great time, and have lots of great memories.  I will say that this was my first and definitely last time at a Nascar race.  I'm just not into it.  But all that matters is that Matty has a great time!


Matty played kitchen with the very nice and expensive appliances while we were waiting for AJ to arrive.


This is AJ Allemenger.  I think he finished 7th which is very good for him.


The Monster Mile!


See the band-aid on Matty's chin?  He got that after tripping over his own feet at Best Buy.  He went right into a subwoofer and busted up his chin... poor guy.












It was really loud!


A little louder than Matty was expecting.  He was a little scared at first...


Then he fell asleep!  Ha! 



We left after about 90 laps.  It was freezing, and we wanted to beat all the crazy race traffic!  Thanks so much Grandma and Papa for giving us the tickets!  And thanks, too, for watching Gracie Girl for the day!
