Gentlemen, Start your engines...

When Bryan and I went on our Anniversary weekend he bought an old gumball machine to turn into a fish tank but it was in way better shape than we realized. He looked it over, all the parts were there and it really just needed a good cleaning. It remained a 5 cent gumball machine.

So cute to see it sitting there.

Friday Bobbi did my hair. She is amazing at what she does. I always leave feeling so much better and it has to do with the great person whom I have gotten to spend several hours with. 

Friday night we went to the Beatrice Speedway Championship Races. It was so fun. Ashley, Jayme, Bobbi, Travis, Jill, Bryan and I and a bunch of other friends. Travis made the girls try fried gizzards...

They weren't that impressed. 

At one point during the races one car bumped another car and caused he and another guy to crash into the wall. The yellow flags came out (In case you aren't a race person that means everyone has to stay in the order they were in at the flag, slow down and no funny stuff) So they are trying to get the cars off the track and one of the drivers climbs out of his car and as the car who hit him is coming around the curve he runs out toward it, that driver revs his engine and hits another car, the driver on the track goes over and kicks the offending driver's car. Everyone clapped and cheered and the black flag came out and the offending driver was kicked out of the races for the evening. The wrecked driver takes off for the pit area after the ejected driver and they start having a fight. The track officials went over and broke it up. Almost as good as a hockey game.

These four were taking a picture so I took one from the back at the same time.

The neighbor kids came on Saturday and asked me if I wanted 21 cantaloupe...well maybe 3 would be nice. I gave them a bag of gummi bears because they didn't want money. You would have thought they struck gold. Pretty sure they thought they got the better deal.
