In honor of my little Dash, we couldn’t pass up Monster Jam this year!  But for some reason, Micah thought it was smarter to scalp tickets this year.  (I think we had really good luck with scalped tix last year.)  Anyway, we got there, and there was not a ticket to be had — none!  My poor kids were getting more and more deflated by the second!  But then Navy came up to me and said, “Mom, I know we will get tickets, because I just said a prayer.” (I’m not totally sure if Divine Help is there when you are doing something kind of shady?!?)  But I told her that we needed to get to work then!
My kids were classic….calling out, “Tickets… we need tickets!”
I kid you not, the show had started, and fewer and fewer people were trickling in…and still no tickets.
Navy told everyone, “Don’t worry….we will get them!”
And about a minute later, a man walked up to us and said he had some for us.  (Keep in mind that there were dozens of others looking for tickets also — and we needed 6!)
He told us he had just enough, and didn’t even charge us an arm and a leg!
And we walked in within a few minutes of the show starting.

We sat down in great seats, and were glued to an amazing spectacle of monster trucks doing their thing!

My kids loved the wave!

And I loved their matching sweatshirts!

Dash’s favorite — El Torro Loco dominated!
It even did the most amazing back flip, and the crowd went wild!

We were all in our happy place.
But nobody was in a happier place than Dash!
