Shane took Caleb on Saturday (the actual show was on Sunday) to look at the monster trucks up close. He looks so tiny! The TMNT is his favorite, of course.
I was surprised how entertained I was. And it was great seeing Caleb and Shane get so excited about "boy" stuff. I went for a food run and when I came back, Shane nearly bit my head off! "You took the camera! Where is it!! You're missing all the good stuff!" Whoa! Calm down man! hahahaha :))
The Gravedigger got his back tires messed up from the jump above. You can see in the picture below that the back tires are crooked. It was so funny seeing him drive like that, he was all over the place!
The picture below reminds me of the cartoon "Cars" cause the way the tires are flayed out looks so unreal.
And here is The Escalade after it flipped over. Shane and I were thinking that it was totally on purpose because it was so exciting and the whole crowd went CRAZY!! But, it really did mess him up and he wasn't able to be in the rest of the show, so maybe it wasn't planned.
Shane bought Caleb this Gravedigger flag, which I rolled my eyes at when the girl said it cost $10! But, he was so happy and waved it around with such enthusiasm, that I probably would have paid $20.
And the perfect ending to a monster truck show? The very last truck blew something and caught on fire! Totally awesome!
And check out what he did to the tire and rim!
So, I realize that all of you reading this are woman and unless you have a little boy, probably would never even think to go to a show like this. I tried to post the most interesting pictures, so I hope you weren't bored to tears. If you have (or know any) little boys I *highly* recommend you take them to Monster Jam! It was just too fun for words. And I have to say, I think it's probably way more exciting than River Dance. :P

Looks like it was very fun, it's been too long since the last time i went to a monster trunk show. the arena looks big, im sure it's a better show then in small arco arena.Tell Caleb that GRAVE DIGGER is MY favorite. Hahaha. I think we'll have to join you next time for sure.
I went to monster truck jams several times as a kid, and yes we had a great time.
