the rest of vacation

following our OBX vacation, did we just make the short 7 hour drive home? of course not. instead we made the 12 hour trek to massachusetts to meet new cousin logan and to see monster trucks at the fair. they had the moster trucks last year and Q loved it. this year he was ok with it, but clearly underwhelmed having been to so many legitimate monster jam events this year.
towasaurus wrex
the appropriate named storm damage
the MLB bigfoot
also fittingly named - hurricane force
awaiting the trucks (and already filthy)
the guy in the black shirt is jim cramer, notable as the creator of bigfoot, the original monster truck and more notably to us, the narrator of this unbearable (to us, but sadly not to quentin) bigfoot dvd someone gave Q for christmas one year.
bigfoot won. are you shocked? yeah. no.
also filthy.
Q was happy to discover a race car in one of the exhibition buildings
and even more excited when he found this one.
i don't think the owner/driver of this car had exactly planned on letting kids climb in, but after it was established that the dude used to race at riverside against my dad and grandfather, it was allowed.
i think Q may have enjoyed sitting in this car more than the actual monster truck show
and once big brother gets to do something, "me too" has to do it too
what the heck, why not both get in?
they had the pool of corn kernels again this year. notice how many kids surround the pool now.
and now. we stayed at the corn pool for a loooooooong time.
caroline closed out the day with ice cream.
and Q behind bars
