Vroom...vroom!

Thanks to Charlie and one of his job perks, I had the opportunity to ride in a race car today out at Kansas Speedway...what a rush! Sophie hung out with grandma while I went around the track for a few speedy laps - she loved watching the "fast cars!" I had so much fun...I couldn't help but smile during the ride, but the wind was so cold and hitting me so fast, my teeth felt frozen! I am extremely grateful to have had this experience. Enjoy some of the photos (as you can tell, it's a cold, dreary day here...we were lucky to get this in as we've been dodging rain all day).

Happy weekend everyone!

That's me...blurry at about 160+ mph...
Making the race helmet look good! (actually, I just didn't know how to get it off!)

Girls can do anything, Sophie!
