Greetings from New Hampshire!

Todd and I have never once sat down on our couch on a lazy Sunday afternoon, cracked open a beer and watched Nascar. Not even once, maybe for football but never for Nascar. Just wasn't our sport. Well a couple weeks ago a few friends of ours asked if we wanted to go to a race and for the life of us we could not come up with a reason why not. First of all, Nascar is an American culture which we were all about experiencing and second, when has tailgating with friends at a sporting event ever been a bad time? Yep, never. So this Sunday at 6am, all 7 of us piled in our friends Tahoe and were Nascar bound. We arrived in Loudon, NH around 10am, tailgated til 2pm and then cruised into the race. Unfortunately the rain came and called the race with about 50 laps left but we are now hooked. Nascar rocks, we had an awesome time.


Me and Tif in the car on the ride up. Todd and I purchased quite a few Nascar goodies at Walmart the day before. Here I am in my pretty pink and camo Dale Jr. hat. Go #88!


Cute hubs hanging out in the parking lot. This was his most appropriate Nascar shirt, I believe he wore it in high school and yes his hat says 'Keystone Light'. :)


Since Todd was sporting their logo we thought we might as well drink it as well. This a throw back to my college years, ah good times.

The boys hanging out.


Walking towards the race, miles and miles of RVs and tailgaters

We did not intend to take this in front of port-o-johns, oops.

Ignore my silly face. I decided to support Biffle too. So I changed into his shirt.


Walking by all the vendors


Ladies and Gentlemen, start your engines.



aww.


Go #88 and #16!

Our camera unfortunately decided to walk towards the light after 2 years of mediocre service so all these pictures were taken with my cell phone. I will put up better ones when I get them from our friends. We can't wait to go again, we had so much fun!

We are spoiled ladies...

The wives and significant others of this command are very lucky ladies. A few months ago all the Drill Instructors got together and decided that we deserved a night out on the town. They booked the top floor of a dinner cruise, took care of all the arrangements and told us to get out our favorite cocktails dresses. Seriously how sweet is that?

We had such an awesome time, we had a private room with dinner, an open bar and a DJ. Is there anything else that you need? The weather was a bit foggy but we were too busy dancing to care. We have such an awesome group here.


The boys waiting in downtown Newport to board the boat. They looked so handsome in their suits!


Hanging out on the back of the boat


The ladies


The OCS DIs.

The whole group. Master Guns, his wife Sonja and their son are in front. They are headed back to the fleet in a couple weeks, we are so sad to see them leave.

Jennifer, Maribel, Tif and me...love these ladies!


JP, Marty and Todd


PJ and Tif

We like to take a lot pictures. :)


Of course more pictures of the Coy-ays.

Thank you again guys, we had so much fun. I think we could really get used to this! :)
