Monster Jam!

I know I haven't blogged in a while, so I figured I would catch up on it. I am now 18 (woo!) and I had such a great time at my surprise party. As part of my birthday present, Melody got Sarah, Benny, and me tickets to Monster Jam. We all had so much fun! I dressed up in overalls for the occasion. We went to a tailgate with Mel's family, and then we went over to the Bolles tailgate. The actual show started at 7 so we went inside to watch. The trucks were huge and loud, and the stadium was packed! ... with rednecks of course. At half time there was even a mullet contest. After we left, the crew headed to Famous Amos for a late night breakfast. It's a Hoffman family tradition. By the time we got home I was exhausted and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. I had such a great birthday weekend! Below are pictures from Monster Jam. (Mel Sarah and I, Brent and I, Blue Thunder, Benny and I)
