We are really excited about Greg's new job! He is still working for the same company, but in a different position. He has been wanting to switch to something different for awhile now, and when the opportunity was offered to him, we talked about it, prayed about it, analyzed it, and decided that it was the right decision. There are alot of "pro's" to starting something new, with the most important thing being that Greg was ready for a change. This will also lead to more opportunity in the future. The only "con" is what I already mentioned, working on weekends. But, I guess you might say that I have been spoiled over the last 9 years!!!! I will admit it. I AM pretty spoiled by my husband! We recently took a vacation and went to Ft. Worth. Originally the plan was to go and stay the week and go to the NASCAR Sprint Cup Race. We added a Texas Ranger game to that, and then the Nationwide NASCAR Race, plus practice for both the Nationwide and Sprint Cup Races. Greg actually won a chance to take a "hot lap" with a NASCAR Driver in a convertible camaro around Texas Motor Speedway. I might add that I got to do a "hot lap" also, but I only got to ride with a driving school instructor. Greg got to ride with Jeff Burton.

The other NASCAR Team Chevy drivers that participated in driving people around Texas Motor Speedway were Kevin Harvick and Clint Bowyer. I actually thought I took a picture of Kevin Harvick, but I guess since I CAN'T STAND HIM, my subconscious wouldn't let me!! Here are a couple of other pictures I took:

We had a really good time and are hoping/planning to attend a race at Talladega Super Speedway in Alabama sometime soon!
How much fun! I got to take a tour of Texas Motor Speedway last year. Such a cool and interesting place.
ReplyDeleteMindy, we have been to Texas Motor Speedway several times and LOVE IT there.. we also went to a race a Daytona and had infield passes there. It was really neat! The next on our list is Talladega and then maybe Bristol, Tennessee. :)
