Jake with a motocross rider who does a flip in the air!This past Friday we headed up to Salt Lake City for the Monster Trucks and Motocross show! We had so much fun!! We got into Salt Lake City just as it started to snow. We shopped in a few stores, grabbed some dinner and when we walked outside, there was already about 4 inches on the ground. We got settled in the hotel and when we woke up the next morning there were about 6 inches. (And we were only downtown!) The mountains got blasted! The boys liked it, but all three stated how happy they are that we live in a place that doesn't snow much. I think memories of shoveling quickly came to their minds from living up there for two years!! Saturday morning we woke up, found a place to eat breakfast and headed for the E Center. The boys were so excited they could barely handle it! We had pit passes so we got to go in 2 hours before the show started. All three boys got autographs from all 6 of the monster truck drivers and all 8 of the motocross riders. They even got to ride in a monster truck!! Also in the pit was a WWF star. He hosts a WWF show on Monday nights. I even got to put on the crown cause he told the boys I was a cool mom! So, after two hours hanging out with all the riders and drivers, we ran to the car to put all our souvenirs (and we had alot!) away and then got to our seats. We had awesome seats smack in the middle of the E Center and only up 10 rows! Our seats were perfect! The monster truck drivers raced, the motocross riders freestyled over a HUGE jump and then some local truck drivers came and raced around the track. That was funny! Overall, the show was great! All three boys had such a great time and want to go back up north for the Monster Jam in February. We haven't decided if we will go to that or head to Las Vegas for the freestlye motocross. The boys liked the Monster Trucks but they loved it when the motocross riders jumped, flipped, did no handers and all sorts of tricks over the jump, which did I already say was HUGE???!!! It was such a fun time for the two days we were gone but boy was it cold! It was nice to get back to our warm 45 degree weather! hahaha

Sounds awesome! Reagan and I used to go to those (the kids were still too young back then). Now we kind of miss them. We heard that Supercross is coming back to SLC this year! So we are tempted to go to that. Reag has gone in Vegas with customers from work, so it would be awesome to take the boys now that they are older! I am glad you had fun and yes, you are a very cool Mom! Ask any kid at the school! :) I am glad you guys feel the same way about snow...it is funny how fast you don't miss any of that anymore! :)
Looks like you guys had an AWESOME time. I have been once to see it and I thought it was cool. I was actually on a date and remember that it was fun. I agree with living in warmer weather. I absolutely hate shoveling snow with a passion. And it is too cold. I love that I can still wear my flip flops everyday.
I am so glad that you had a good time! It doesn't look like my cup of tea, but who knows? I might end up with boys and have to see that too. I will definitely know who to call! Glad you're back though!
What a freakin blast! A boys dream...I would love to take my boys to one of those!
oh I wonder why that guy that does the flip in the air doesn't have any teeth...ha ha
Sounds like you had an awesome time. You are the coolest mom around just ask any of the boys. I missed all that snow having grown up there, but after going this Christmas and driving both ways in a snow storm I decided I like living here a lot better. It's funny how fast we climatize, I was freezing the whole time I was there.
I hope you looked into booking your cruise with us. We have some great deals on cruises!
I am jealous that looks so fun. That's what Brandon and I did for one of our first few dates, it was so fun. I would love to go and take my kids. that's one of the few things I miss about living up north is going to fun stuff like that. You look like such a fun Mom!!! Jodi
