Lance's Birthday

On Wednesday I took a half day to go get my wedding dress fitted and also to celebrate Lance's birthday! I've decided I'm in the wrong business and I need to get into the alterations business! My alterations cost me half the total cost of my dress. Completely ridiculous! But, I wasn't about to fall flat on my face walking down the isle so pay the absurd amount of money I did!

Now on to Lance's birthday. When I got home we went down to K-1 Speed. K-1 is a go cart speedway where the go carts go about 45 mph. I bought us both 3 races each, but I only went twice. My daredevil days are past me I guess. I was driving along and this pre-teen girl who was in our heat had spun out around a blind corner. I never saw her, hence the blind corner part. Luckily I was going some what slower because it was a corner, but that crash knocked me around good! The crash didn't faze that little girl. Me, I was done. I had a big bruise along my inner leg that was the same shape as the steering column, a bruise on my neck from the seat belt, and bruises along my side from being josseled around in the go cart. This is why we have to wear these big helmets. I should have turned around at that point! =) For those of you who know Dr. Wilson, he would not have been pleased!

Sitting out the last round I was able to take pictures of Lance as he went around the track. Our little digital camera could not keep up with how fast he was going. I was trying to time it perfectly and it would take so darn long for the thing to take he was already gone when it finally did! Oh, and the lighting was horrible in there! Sorry they are so dark. If you can spot him, he's in the gray shirt and jeans.

The last picture is our dinner at Dukes down in Huntington Beach. It's one of our favorite restaurants and it sits right on the water. Since it was Lance's birthday they gave him a piece of Hula Pie. The best dessert EVER! You can tell he's excited! hahahaha







Hope you had a fun birthday Lance! I love you lots!

Love to everyone!
