My Daytona Day!

So if you are a fellow race fan you probably celebrated the beginning of the season by watching the Daytona 500! We have a tradition in my neighborhood that my family hosts a Daytona 500 party and if you follow me on Twitter you got to see some of the pictures from yesterday! We definitely had some more detail in the party this year with decorations, food, and the unveiling of our newly redecorated NASCAR room! It was a fun day to hang out with neighbors and some people I don't get to see as often.

Fun Fact: I have known this girl 14 years
 and I get to take her to her first race

I actually did get to watch a good portion of the race including the crazy photo finish. I thought the race was pretty uneventful but I did enjoy seeing the cars on the track again. I was bummed about Chase wrecking as early as he did but some of the other guys I root for did really awesome! I will admit I was hoping Truex would get the win but I am happy for Denny and his family! This weekend did not start with the 500 though. The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series had their race Friday night and that was a crazy race! I was happy to see Austin Theriault do so well after his wreck at Las Vegas and see William Byron do well. I do miss seeing Erik Jones in the 4 truck but I think he will do well in Xfinity.  The Xfinity race was a pretty crazy race too. Seeing Chase be so successful and run well was awesome! I was pretty bummed for Erik Jones though after he got wrecked early on. It was a really good weekend and I am excited for the race at Atlanta this weekend. But to be honest I am super excited to make it back to a track. I miss the races and being there.


I also loved showing off my love of racing by showing off my remodeled room with driver plates and displays showing off my favorite drivers! I included pics below so you can see too!

 So am I happy racing is back? Yeah I am. Did I have a wonderful weekend? Oh yeah I did! I enjoy the party every year but nothing beats having racing back.

I hope you enjoyed this post about my Daytona Day! I would love to see pictures of your Daytona Day so please send them to me on Twitter so I can see and I will be back soon!
