Monster Trucks on the Beach

Filed Under: Family, Travel Tagged With: monster truck, mother's day

On Mother’s Day we went up to the oceanfront for Monster Trucks on the Beach. It was so much fun. Last time we were there Carsyn was in my belly! This time Carsyn was out of my belly and was able to enjoy watching the show. Dustyn is a lot older so I think he liked the show a lot more.

Kenny was so excited because Big Foot was there. He LOVED monster trucks growing up, especially Big Foot. Since they are more midwest Kenny was never able to see the truck in person until this past Sunday. His eyes lit up when he saw it and heard that his favorite driver was driving it.

It really was an awesome show. They did motocross freestyle instead of the quad wars. I loved it so much more. The quad wars got to be boring because it was always just a “show” and was set up. We had the perfect seats for the motorcross jump. I was able to capture some great silhouettes of their tricks.

I think we will be going again next year. I really want to get a balcony room in one of the hotels. That way we can just watch it from the balcony. Would be a nice little vacation too.

All these photos were taken with my Samsung Note 2. I seriously love the camera on my phone. So nice to just grab photos with it instead of lugging around my big girl camera.

By the way if you missed my post earlier I did a tutorial on how to make your own backdrop stand.

Carsyn’s birthday was Saturday so keep an eye out on my blog. I will be posting all about his party soon!

What did you do this past weekend? I hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s Day!

21|365 Trying on glasses. She loved these ones. He 21|365 Trying on glasses. She loved these ones. Hers should arrive in a week or two. 

We saw a third eye doctor. We are going to try glasses for two months and also try to prevent her from closing or covering her left eye. Along with having her focus on something brought to her nose throughout the day. Then recheck. She did mention alternate patching. Even though they see it in both eyes it is more prominent in her left eye. If neither one is helping then we will do surgery.

20|365 Annelyn did amazing at the allergist today. 20|365 Annelyn did amazing at the allergist today. I felt so bad when they were poking her back. I shared a photo in my stories of her back. They tested for dairy, eggs, green beans and pork. She previously had a reaction to green beans and bacon so they wanted to check that. The dairy and egg still had a reaction, but the doctor feels it is small enough that we can start trying eggs and dairy in small portions. Her egg reaction is a little less than dairy so we are going to try that first. 

I let her pick out a toy and she picked this baby yoda.

14|365 Sweet girl. Little update we are going for 14|365 Sweet girl. Little update we are going for a 3rd opinion next week at an office that offers vision therapy. I am going to see if they think therapy and/or glasses would help. I’m hoping that it will be an option since she is able to control it when we get her to focus. We will see. 

Thanks for all the advice and sharing your experiences. I know every child and diagnosis is different but it is nice to hear what others have done.
