Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach

Jeremy was super excited to get us tickets to the Grand Prix on April 20. I didn't know much about it, and I still don't know much about it, other than it was really cool. Basically, they close off a bunch of roads in Long Beach and let race cars zoom around the town at 200 miles an hour. They have food, venders, entertainment, the works.
 The cars are really, really loud. Tanner was pretty nervous about them at first. He did NOT want to watch the races at all.
 They had a big car show/vender's fair thing in the giant conference hall. Tanner liked that much more than the real races. He was elated when we found the model cars to sit in and "drive."
They had a kids area with games and little race cars. Tanner was too little to make them drive, so he was upset that his car was not moving. 
 We got great seats right next to the race track. By this point, Tanner was much more comfortable with the race cars. He was yelling "Go car, go!!" and "WOW!" "LOUD!"
 And here's a random picture of my boy taking a bubble bath. What a cutie pie! He likes to scoop up the bubbles in his red bowl and play in the running water.
