Andrew's Birthday Continued


On Saturday after the lake party, Andrew, Joey and Uncle David were off to the truck race in Nashville.

Thanks to a dear friend at the church, the guys each had VIP tickets that gave them great seats, and passes to the pits and garage area and just about anywhere else. They had an awesome time.

Andrew on the track!


It was a night race and so it wasn't too terribly hot. The boys got in late but had an awesome time doing guy stuff!
Sunday was Andrew's actual birthday and the party continued. Gail took us out to dinner--Andrew's choice. He surprised all of us and said Cracker Barrel. Maybe its being 10! He never chooses Cracker Barrel. We spoiled him with a birthday sundae!

On Monday we were off to other adventures--Point Mallard Water Park!


We picked up good friend, Emily and headed for some watery fun! We had a picnic. I locked my key in the car. Joey had to come rescue us. We had loads of fun. Poor Super Joey!
Did I mention that everybody else on the planet decided to come to Point Mallard also! This did not deter us from having a great day!

When my key got locked in the car, the sunscreen was also locked in the car. We went into the park for about an hour before Joey got there so we had one full hour of direct sun. I had already put my lotion on and fortunately, already lathered up Alora as well. Andrew, Emily and Gail were not so lucky. Emily has dark skin so she was alright. Andrew's face fried but really was better the next day. Gail, on the other hand, was a lobster! Poor, poor Gail. I rubbed her poor fried back with major doses of solarcaine when we got home!

Ahhh. Summer! We love you! Monday officially ended and so did Andrew's four-day-birthday party.
