Darren & Alexander have been going to Monster Jam for the last 5-6 years. It's one of their manly traditions. This year they got a bunch of fathers & sons together and went as a group.
Darren had 1 extra ticket, so Courtney went along. Darren keeps trying to get me to come, insisting I'll LOVE it--how long have we been married? "Party in the Pit" just doesn't sound like a good time to me:)
When Alexander was 5 we lived in Maine and a driver asked him what his favorite truck was. Alexander responded, "Clam Digger!!" I am not sure if the driver of "Grave" Digger would have found that to be as funny as we did.
The guys {and gal} had a great time. Alexander's flag has been autographed at every Monster Jam he's been to--except this one! There were too many people.
They took a break from Party in the Pit to go out to eat. I was thinking they'd hit Peter Piper or McDonalds, but the Dads decided on Cooperstown...Alice Cooper's restaurant! Darren said the food is awesome, and Courtney said, "This place is very scary-- and it's not even Halloween!"
A great time was had by all. Xander's fave was "this car that jumped through an exploding school bus." What's not to love about that?!? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzVw7Awd3bsAnother good lesson on why we should wear seat belts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzlvsc0oUY0 ................The Moms went for pedicures & shopped while the boys were out.

A fun time had by all! Nick forgot the camera, so I may need to borrow a few of your pics for my blog. Cooperstown was an interesting choice indeed! :) I so enjoyed my evening with the ladies. A truck show doesn't sound like something I would enjoy much either.
