NASCAR+Lilia+Elayna=Exhausted

We got tickets to see a NASCAR race.  Asher and Mike got the V.I.P tickets (Thanks Momma).  They got the great seats and awesome food.  We were ready for the day.  Momma and I would take care of the girls.  We had ear plugs, hats, sun screen and the works for the girls.  No strollers allowed.  I was carrying Elayna in a carrier and my back pack.  Momma ended up holding Lilia.  We went to check out our seats before the race started and only one car was doing laps but it was loud enough that Lilia clung to Grandma for her life.  We did not sit in our seats.  We got our voucher lunches of hot dogs and drinks and we had a great time.  We did find the play area for the kids and Lilia loved it once she warmed up to the idea. It took 20 minutes but she finially jumped and did not want to leave.  When the race started we spent it out side the gates.  I got the stroller from the car.  It was very windy.  Time went by pretty quickly.  Asher and Mike had a great time.  They took pictures on the track and had all kinds of fun.
Here Grandma got Lilia to look and not be scared.


Elayna slept and was so good.  She did not mind being in the carrier and had a great time. She is such a good baby.

Lunch was very good.  Getting the food to the table was a little hard.  We were running out of hands.  We patiently waited our turn at the condiment table and then were ambushed by teenagers that squeezed in to get the condiments instead of waiting. I only had my hands available because Jennifer was holding Lilia, she would not let go.


Lilia has decided that jumping was fun.  She did not want to leave.

Throwing the basketball with Grandma's help.  Wish we had found the play area sooner.

Lilia hiding outside the gates.  The wind was blowing really hard.  All of our eyes were dry and tired.
