This year we took Papa & Cole to Eldora Motor Speedway for a Nascar Charity Race. It was sooo much fun that I am pretty sure it will become an every year tradition. Cole's favorite driver is Jimmie Johnson so this picture was a must. We never saw Jimmie in person because we were not close enough to the stage when they were all introduced...maybe next year!
Where are you, Jimmie? If you were lucky enough, you could catch sight of the drivers standing near their semi trailers. We did get to see Kyle Busch and Kasey Kahne standing on top of their semis watching some racing on the track. Cole thought that was awesome!
Cole had never been to a race at all before so I really wish I would have captured his expression when they fired up there engines and started racing on the dirt track. Mommy is a huge fan of dirt track racing because it is just so much fun to watch them slipping and sliding all over the track. Cole just was in totally awe and said very little... hard to imagine him speechless, isn't it?
It was a hot day, but a cool night for racing. We loaded our stomachs up with concession food and got home in the wee hours of the morning. Jimmie didn't win the race, but Cole still had a great time watching him.
Until next year...
