Millie went to her first car show

After church yesterday, Jacade told me to get into something comfortable; something I could walk around in. He wouldn't tell me where we were going - it was a surprise. So we all loaded into the Jeep and headed north.

We went to the Atlanta Motor Speedway in Hampton for the Super Chevy Show - Millie's first car show! We got there and it was hot! Then we got up to the grandstands and they were just starting the drag racing and it was SO LOUD!!! We had to cover Millie's ears but she looked like she was enjoying it.

So we walked over to the infield where they were having a car show and we looked at all the cars and trucks. She started to get antsy towards the end b/c she wanted to get in the cars, like she does at home; but we couldn't let her do that. We watched a couple of the races and it was so loud. One of the jet cars just about took my breath away. A total rush.

We tried to get Millie to drink her water and eat some hamburger but she really wasn't interested. We then got some ice cream on the way out - actually some Pina Colada Italian Ice and she kept saying/signing "more."

We left and she fell asleep on the way home. Could you actually blame her? I wanted to fall asleep too.
