RACE WEEKEND!

This girl has racing in her blood... which has made this weekend incredibly fun.

Yesterday we went out to the Miller Motorsports Park for the Superbikes. Talk about crazy stuff! These guys were incredible. While we were there we were able to see their qualifying heats and also catch the BMW stunt riders -- talk about insane!

Superbikes and motorcycles is a new world of racing to our family and we are enjoying the opportunity to broaden our knowledge and racing experiences. It was a gorgeous day out at the track and we even escaped right before the rain came down hard. What a great day!!!


Today was the 100th anniversary of the Indy 500 -- which translates into PARTY AT THE BEAUDRY HOUSE!! We woke up to pre-race festivities with the famous "Spud Diner Breakfast" happening (that means Poppa is cooking, haha) and it only got better from there!!



This year the race was phenomenal! Some crashes, but everyone was safe. Lots of green flag racing, a little mechanical craziness, lots of race leaders and an absolutely mind-blowing finish!


We were jumping and screaming the entire time!!



Now I'm at work and my partner and I have on some Nascar. When I got here we were talking racing (a rare treat to talk to a race fan out here) and I mentioned that I usually don't watch Nascar. He laughed and said, "Well, you are about to." So here we sit, with more racing.


What a great weekend!!!
