Supercross

April 25th, the Bartons came down and spent the weekend with us again so that we could all go to the Supercross. The boys were die hards and went first thing in the morning, but it was a pretty drizzly day so us girl's opted to go shopping in the morning and catch up with them later in the afternoon. When we had caught up with them they had had a pretty good day with a few exceptions. First, Gage was upset because he did not get any autographs from the riders. For some reason, Gage is sooo star struck. He loves the idea of famous people and getting their autographs. That was a huge let down for him. Then the freestyle event was cancelled due to the rain. We always enjoy that part of the supercross so that was a bummer. It all got better though once the races actually started. We were all cheering and yelling for our favorite riders, especially Gage and Blake. It is fun to see them so excited. The two leaders of the races for the past few years have been Chad Reed and Bubba Smith. Our family was a little split on who we like. Gage likes Bubba and the rest of us like Chad Reed. Gage didn't mind being the only one rooting for Bubba. He actually felt quite victorious about it because Bubba took the race and Gage definitely rubbed it in our faces.

Smoke rings we thought were cool from all of the pyrotechnics.
