Nascar in Las Vegas

So it has been awhile since my last blog and we have had a couple of busy weekends. I am going to have to do a couple of blogs to update you on everything. First things first we went to Las Vegas Feb. 28 to March 4 for Nascar. Our first night there though we did have tickets for Phantom of the Opera. I must say seeing this for the 3rd time it was still as good as ever! The first time was in New York and that was an experience all in its self, then I saw it in Salt Lake City, still great and lastly Vegas. There is defiantly something to be said about Vegas. When they do it, they definatly do it bigger and better. The theater was awesome. The ocherstra pit was amazing and the special effects, need I say more. Then it was off to three fun filled days of Nascar. For the first time ever they brought the "haulers" down the strip for everyone to see, this one is Dale Earnhardt Jr's haulerOk so I am a Stewart fan(shown below). Although he drives a Toyota I still cheer for him. Al cheers for Carl Edwards who drives first of all a Ford, and second it is painted red. This turned out to be a wise choice because after AL picked him, he won two races in a row. He also does a back flip off of his car when he wins. He did win Vegas and we do have a picture of the flip. Emma Jane is a Jimmie Johnson fan for whatever reason her little head chose. Dave and Brooke are undeclared as long as it is not a toyota or a Busch brother, I think he cheers for them.
This is Kasey Kahne. A lot of people think he is a hottie, he drives the 9 car. I think he is the only driver that Dave saw in the pit that is why he took his pic. who knows?

As previosly stated everything is bigger in Vegas and what would a flyby be without the Thunderbirds? Carl Edwards doin' his flip
That's Vegas now I just have to update the other stuff and we are good to go.

I was sorry to see your guy, Tony Stewart, go out in the very end today. Looks like Vegas was a lot of fun.

We were so excited to see some of your pictures of NASCAR from Vegas. Al is still an Edwards fan even though he didn't look good today.
