Xtreme Ice Racing

We went to Xtreme Ice Racing last night.
Chris got free tickets from the bank and we made a night of it.
The boys love motorcycles and 4 wheelers, so since it was
free we decided to take them.
The place was practically empty so we got to sit in the
second row. The kids loved it! Cole was cheering and
yelling and it was so nice to see that he
was having the time of his life.
It was a little drawn out and a little boring
at times, but seeing the boys have fun made it worth it all.

Every time I wanted a picture of Mason, this is the half wink/half smile I got from him.

I can't decided if he's just not happy about getting his picture here,
or if he's getting ready to give the camera his half wink/half smile.

Since we were sitting in the second row, it was a little loud for the boys.
Chris put ear plugs in their ears, but Mason still covered his ears.

Jonah was so funny. He would not sit still. We had a whole bunch
of seats for ourselves and so we would just let Mason and Jonah
wander back and forth between all the seats in the middle.
Well, this got to be a little annoying for Chris because they don't
give you much leg room. So every time Jonah passed by Chris, he
had to maneuver his legs so Jonah could get by. Well, for some
reason, Jonah decided he really liked his Uncle Chris last night.
He kept playing in between his legs and he would keep putting his
foot down between the seat in front and the platform so that his foot
would get stuck and his shoe would get stuck after he pulled his foot out.
So, numerous times Uncle Chris had to put Jonah's shoe back on for him.

Then Jonah just decided he wanted to stand there with Uncle Chris and
watch the race.

I think Uncle Chris is getting a little perturbed now. lol
He had to cover Jonah's ears for each race too because Jonah didn't
want to wear ear plugs, so he had two hoods, a winter hat, and Uncle
Chris's hands over his ears during each race. lol He was so hyper!
See? Even Tisha is yelling at him in the picture! :) haha

(Jonah and Cole look a little "special" in this picture for some reason)

Glad we didn't pay for the tickets, but glad we took the time to take the kids.
They enjoyed it. So, that was worth the drive and the $10 to park. :)

jonah says thank you uncle chris for being so patient!

i bet chris will not complain when the kids get a little hyper now that he sees that jonah is normally so active.
