It was kind of crazy, I was driving and quickly glanced upon a sign... could it really be? The monster truck show was in town!!! I found a coupon and got the gentlemen in for 50% off tickets. Papa is required to go next time. Eli was very confused why Papa wasn't coming since it was a boy's night out. Thank you Papa for taking the girls to Piranha night at the Coconut Bowl. (There weren't enough lanes so he ended up treating the girls out to indy car races, Shanghai vegetarian dinner, and Red Robin root beer floats!! Such a good grandpa... yes mom, we know. You taught him well.)
Eli was THRILLED!!!!! He had such a good time with his daddy!!
Rock on Ray-no people. Rock on.
Right before the show started, Eli had to use the bathroom. He was in the stall next to Joe when the trucks started. Eli was terrified they were going to come into the bathroom.
He loved watching them!!!!
But his ULTIMATE FAVORITE WAS THE FOOOOOORRRRRRRRKLIFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes. Nothing got him so pumped up as seeing the forklift take away the smashed cars. He was cheering, clapping, shouting.
Pure awesomeness.
As they left, traffic was pretty bad.... but fortunately some Cholo with a beer and cigarette in hand got out of his car to direct traffic. You never know where good deeds will come from. Bless you dear sir.
The boys got home around 10PM. Eli was WIRED. He was all over the place. But he finally fell asleep at 10:30PM.
It was quite a great night out!!!

Oh, how fun! I wish we had Monster Jam instead of knock-off Monster Jam, but those shows are just a blast. Does he have Hot Wheel Monster Trucks? I think we have accumulated six or so in the last couple years. haha. If he doesn't, let me know...we'll send some his way as a fun little gift. :)
