the brickyard 400 baby!
August 3, 2009Last weekend, John, CJ and I jumped in the car and headed to Indianapolis. We headed down there pretty early on Saturday morning. We got inside around 10ish I’d like to say? Anyways, it was RAINING and qualifying and everything was delayed pretty much until late afternoon. By the time it did start, we were sitting down on the front stretch bleachers. CJ made friends with the lady in front of us, she gave him her little notebook and a pen to color with. He is only 16 months old and is already fly with the ladies. CJ loved when the cars would come around, he would jump around and scream with excitement.
Sunday was a GLORIOUS day! It was sunny, a breeze came through every so often…I did get sunburned on my face but it wasn’t too bad. CJ actually fell asleep half way through the race and slept till the end. I am not sure how he can sleep when 42 cars are roaring by him, but won’t nap at home when its quiet. It was fun, I didn’t get too many photos because we weren’t going to take the telephoto lens with us since it is so heavy and we had a lot of other things to carry around. I really need to get a point n shoot to take along for the family trips, would make it a lot easier and I’d probably take more pictures then. It was a fun weekend, were planning to go to Talladega in the fall, and maybe Michigan at the end of this month.
CJ gets his cast off on WEDNESDAY!!! I’m SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited!!

I can never get photos of CJ, he either turns his head and runs the other direction or if he is stuck like in his stroller….gives me this face. I call it the “mom, get the camera out of my face” look. 

I will have zoo pictures, wedding pictures and more photos of CJ coming this week!
