Memorial weekend has been one of our favorites since moving from Chicago back to Indy. This is the fifth year that we have attended the 500. This year we did a big blowout cookout on Saturday. We had between 40-50 people attend. Our crowd has changed a lot over the years, and this year we had about 15 kids over, most under the age of 5. There was still plenty of beer, and lots of food! It was a fun day, and great to catch up with a lot of people that we haven't seen in awhile.
It was a hot, hot weekend, so the kids all played in the pools and water table.
Oliver learned how to serve beer out of a keg.
Just hanging out!
Fun in the sun.
On Sunday, 6 of us headed to the track. It was a smaller group than last year, but we had a great time! Chuck and Jody came from Wisconsin for their first race, and Mark and Heather joined us again. This year's 500 went on record as the hottest race in history, but we had the luxury of covered seats. I will never sit in the sun on race day again! We had a great time.
Tailgating before the race. Breakfast and mimosas across from the track.
Lined up 3 wide. This is the great view from our seats.
Not the greatest pic, but here we are!!
