I love starting traditions with Makenzie. When I was younger I used to go to the Monster Truck Jams every year. My favorite was the Grave Digger. We would pass the Grave Diggers store and practice track every year driving to Nags Head, that's when we knew we were close. So, when we went to watch the Monster Trucks, us kids would root for the Grave Digger b/c we kinda felt like we knew him. :) This was the first year Kenzie was old enough to fully enjoy Monster Trucks. She was very excited to go when I asked her if she was interested, so I bought us tickets. We went with Sam, Charlie and Devin Knott. Kenny's brother Billy, his wife Stephenie and their oldest son Dylan. We also brought Makenzie's BFF, Gracie. We had such a great time. It's just how I remember it as a kid and I hope to take Kenz and friends every year. Here are some pictures:

Poor Gracie, holding her ears again. When I picked her up that morning and told her we where going to watch Monster Trucks she said "GIRLS, GOING TO A TRUCK SHOW?" ha ha Makenzie said "Uh, yea Grace!" I wasn't sure Makenzie would be into it, but she loved every minute.
