Monster Jam

What's the best remedy for a girl that has been sick on the couch all week? The monster truck show of course. We have been planning on going to the monster truck show for a few months now...Ryan has been talking about it constantly. Wouldn't you know we all got sick this week, except for Doug. I have had a miserable cold and the boys have had the flu. I knew that I was just going to have to suck it up and go since we have all been looking forward to this show for quite some time. Ryan has been counting it down on his calendar and marking off days waiting for it to come.
Tyler kept pointing to the trucks and then turning around and looking at us as if to confirm that we were seeing the same thing. This was his first monster truck show...seeing how much he loved it, I doubt it will be his last.
Wouldn't you know it decided to rain while we were there. Bummer! We were ready for it though. Luckily, the weather was pretty warm...65 degrees. The monster truck show is held at Angels stadium.
We had to improvise a bit because Tyler didn't have his own poncho.
Daddy let Tyler tromp through all the rain puddles on the way out to the car. He was in heaven, but we had to strip him down because he was soaking wet.
It was a very fun night(even with the rain). No doubt there will be many more monster truck shows in our future. Maybe one day I will have a little girl and be able to take her to the ballet, but I have to admit, monster truck shows are a heck of a lot more fun. :)

That sounds like soooo much fun! I'm very jealous. I'm sure all the boys (and who are we kidding, I know you loved it too, Kristen) were in hog heaven. :)

We definitely need to do monster truck with you guys sometime. Looks sweet. I love how engaged the boys look in every photo. I bet that was the most still that Ryan has been in a long time!
