Wow, all I can say about Monster Truck Jam is that it is definitely an experience! A few weeks ago we had planned a trip to go visit Jarrod’s family in Greenville, SC for a family birthday celebration for Bo. A few days later my sister in law, Kim, emailed me and mentioned she saw that Monster Truck Jam was going to be in town that same weekend. So of course we had to take Bo…what little boy wouldn’t love it! Well, we were right, he did!! I was so proud of him for keeping his ear protection on, I think it helped that all of the other little boys had ear muffs on too. In addition to the ear muffs, we also had child size ear plugs in his ears. I’m so glad because I can’t even describe how loud it was. It was so loud that it actually made my ears hurt, I’m not sure I’ve ever experienced that before. We walked in right when it was starting and the adults had not had time to put their earplugs in so we got a quick 30 second glimpse of just how loud it really was. We were also really close!! The arena wasn’t very big at all and I swear there were times I thought “what if he looses control, he’s going to be in the seat next to me”!!!!! It was so funny to watch Bo’s reaction. At first he was just frozen, just eyes as big as they could possibly go! I don’t think he realized he was going to see real monster trucks, he’s just used to his toy monster trucks. He did great and when it was over he kept asking for “one more”. Oh and what was really funny, was that baby was going nuts during the entire thing!!! The sounds and vibrations probably had our peanut wondering where in the world they were!!
After the show we headed back to Jarrod’s parent’s house for pizza, cake, and presents. He loves, loves, loves his cousins Lily and Josie, he had so much fun playing with them. I say this every time but I would welcome a weekend visit from them anytime, they are so good with him and I don’t ever have to worry about if he’s getting into something he shouldn’t. It’s a very nice break for mommy!!! So his second birthday party of his 3rd birthday was definitely a hit!!! Oh and he now wants to crash everything he sees, which is what I was afraid of haha!
Right at the beginning…this expression just says it all!! Can’t you just imagine the thoughts in his head!!!
Josie, Lily, & Aunt Kim
pictures just don’t do these things justice, I can’t tell you how big they are!!

Of course I had to order a monster truck cake too!
