Monsure Crucks!!



That would be how Hyrum says Monster Trucks, he talks about it multiple times a day, and just really loved going, we went last weekend, it was all our first time.... and probably not our last. Jaron really got into it, and loved watching all the parts fall off and the total craziness of all the big trucks. It was ok for me. I was surprized on how slow it seemed. It had its Highlights, but I thought there would be more smashing and crashing and super crazy jumps, thats all... well, it wasn't that bad. So here are the pics of the night.
We actually went to the Pit Party down on the field were you can get up close and personal with the trucks and the drivers. Those Trucks are actually really big up close. And all the Drivers looked like really nice people. Jar was envious of their day job :) .
One of the little Derby Cars (Hyrum actually did get to see these ones race)
His face while say "Cool Dude" with his new bandana from 98 kupd
Well after about an Hour at the Pit Party... we were done, there was nothing more to do, so (being that we went soooooo early for that, we got to sit around for like 2 hours). And they wouldnt even let us up to our seats, so we sat around the bottom in the 100 level seats.
So we walked around and got something to drink and thats when Hyrum started coughing and it turned into gaging and that turned into him throwing up all over himself and Jaron....Nice. We havent even started the show Yet, and Jar and hyrum have to go all night smelling of... ya... So we got to spend a pretty penny on some Wonderful Merchandise of "GraveDigger" Monster Truck Shirts. Hyrum and Daddy got matching shirts. But even through all this, Hyrum did sooo well, the problem only started when we got up into our seats, and we were waiting for the show to start. (keep in mind hyrum didnt get a nap... nor is he napping right now) ...Well we are cheep and because Hyrum was still 2 we didnt actually have to buy him a seat... BAD idea, as he was sitting on our laps, he kept kicking this really pompus lady in front of us, and she wasn't even nice about it, she pulled all kinds of attitude. So Jaron took Hyrum out in the lobby for a while, and while he was out there walking around with him..... this happend....
and he didnt even wake up when the loud fire works went off. He was OUT. we put his Ear Muffs on him so he could sleep a bit better, cuz he needed to get a little nap. He didnt miss much of the big trucks, just the little races and fun derbys they had to prequal the Monster trucks.
Could this be any cuter, the ear muffs squeeze his face, and that is one Genuine Smile!
All in all it was a fun night out with my boys.

This is of Our (Jarons) beloved Grave Digger Taking his last "awesome" jump and crash, I just love how crazy the crowd gets. "GO MONSTER TRUCKS"!!!

Dude! That truck totally crashed. Carl made me play it again for him...it must be a guy thing. Anyway, good thing you had those ear muffs for your kid! My parents and I went to one of these when I was in Junior high and we were all making fun of everyone around us before it started because they all had ear plugs...yeah, needless to say, they were all making fun of us once it got started and as we were plugging our ears with our fingers! OUCH! BTW- your kid is just about the cutest boy ever!

Hyrum is adorable! The monster trucks are incredibly loud. In high school my little swinging/singing group was performing on the stage outside the arena and I thought it was kinda rude for them to schedule our performance in the middle of the pre show! NO one could hear us! ;)

How fun!! We are thinking of seeing the Monster Trucks when they come to Vegas next month. Poor Hyrum, getting sick on his big Monster Truck day!
