ChuckE Cheese

We spent some time at ChuckE Cheese today. After being gone all day away from the girls it was there turn to have some fun. We still had some on our gift card from Aunt Shelly from 2 years ago! Thanks so much!
The girls spent there time in the kiddy play area, while the boys headed over to the "fun" games.

Here is Kasey practicing for fall, this is where his tokens landed!

Bowie loves horses, some day I am sure she will own one!

Marie even took a turn, she did have some riding skills....

I do think Bowie had a bit of a crush on ChuckE

She was looking for him the whole time after this pic :)

Wyatt had just as much fun as the girls!

He did a little of everything.


Played his bro.

Marie and her mommy.

She thinks she is sooo big!

A little fun on the slide.

A game of peek-a-boo!

And a whole lot of walking!!!!

There was a lot of room to roam, and lots of things to see.
Troy had his try at a big boy game!

The highlight as always was these little tickets. Our children all gathered them and counted up their totals.

Now it was time to gaze at the prizes...



The boys all wanted predictable prizes, race cars, bugs, candy...

But NOT Bowie she had her eye on this lip gloss! She has NEVER had anything like this before, nor even seen any that I know of. She knew she wanted it and knew what to do with it! She LOVED it! It is amazing to me how these things are deep inside her from birth. She is all girly!

Michigan International Speedway

Our family was blessed with a bunch of these FREE!
Tickets to the MIS race!

The day was beautiful, the sky's were blue and there was lots of green flag racing!

We arrived early to check our our FREE seats. They were front row. In NASCAR you like to be toward the top to get the best view of the whole track. We are here to tell you that the first row is AWESOME!!!
We packed lunches for all of us. This was a huge money saver!

You can see behind me the stands were a bit empty still so we climbed up to the top to see what view we were missing.

Section 91 was a great spot!

This place is covered with flags.

This is what we would love to do next! Get Pit Passes! It is a lot of money, but our boys would love this some day!

We had lots of extra time so we set out to check out all the trailers where they sell LOTS of fun NASCAR stuff! This was our favorite one, KYLE BUSCH!

Here is the boys with his car.





This is Kasey with his favorite Juan Paublo Montoya





Now it was about 95 degrees and HOT! But the clothes people wore or not wore still have me thinking this morning. It was defiantly interesting! This girl had a black dress and these boots! I love the boots! I would so where these, just not to a HOT race.

This little girl has my style shoes!

This is one of the three jets that did a great fly over. Very close, very neat.

These racing chicks are my nieces. We had some extra tickets and knew they would love it! They were ready and dressed for some racing action! You girls rock!

This is their mom and dad. Their dad had been 13 times before! I think he knew what to expect!

Troy and I enjoying ourselves with out having to chase after our 2 little ones! Thanks Courtney!

Wyatt was a dye hard race car fan! He did a great job!

Ok I loved it just a bit!

This is where Isaac's eyes are the whole race!



Girls watch the race so different from the boys. The gaze and wait for something interesting to happen! I loved to watch them.

She was on a mission to capture a great shot! I think I got one of her!

This racing babe was pure style!

This is a great pic of all of them (1 missing) into the race.

Afterward we were a bit blessed by getting some sweet signatures! This is David Reutimann he was so nice!

Here is the oh so famous Jeff Gordon! He was way cool to the kids!

We were very blessed to have experienced this moment!

Denny Hamlin came over for a bit also. We did score a signature from him too!



This is the way we all looked after a big long day at the track! So fun, hope to do again next year!
