Monster Truck Jam

The Monster Jam comes around twice a year around here and we have debated in past years if Brayden would be ready to go or not. We had decided that the next time it came around we would take him and within a few days we had heard that it was going to be in Jacksonville, so we immediately bought tickets and I'm so glad we did. Brayden enjoyed every second of it and so did we.

We got there a little early to eat dinner and then made our way to the stadium, with a little side tracking of a lost ticket we made it to our seats in time to see some of the pre-show. Brayden couldn't wait to see the trucks. When the lights dimmed and the trucks entered, the excitement began. We watched a few races and Brayden was anxiously waiting for the freestyle round where they jump over cars and buses. Well about two minutes before the round was about to begin the skies opened up and poured on us. Not just sprinkles, a full on rain storm and by the looks of the radar it wasn't going to end soon.

So we made our long way back to the car, stepping in puddles and absolutely soaked at the end. Hopefully next time we'll stay dry and make it to the end!
