Transportation Day



Yesterday we went to an event called “Transportation Day” here in Ahwatukee. It’s a big event, over 3000 people attending. They had numerous types of transportation vehicles. Some of them included: tractor trailers, a city bus, police cars, an ambulance, a UPS truck, a garbage truck, many boats, a race car (NASCAR), an ice cream truck, a helicopter, ATV’s, dirt bikes, motorcycles, custom cars, and many others. Noah really liked the UPS truck, the city bus, the NASCAR race car, and the helicopter, the best. Check out the pictures. I think the NASCAR Fusion is a bit faster than our Fusion. They also raffled off some amazing gift baskets. Each had an average value of a few hundred dollars worth of goods. We didn’t win the trip to Hawaii basket or the Babies R Us basket, but Amanda did win the living room/bed room decoration basket. It had candles, frames, a mirror, a lamp, blankets, a pillow, and a few other items. It’s at least a couple hundred dollars worth of décor. The only thing I managed to get was a deal on the bake sale; two bags of muffins, a brownie, and a rice crispy treat, for only $1, total! It pays to stick around until the end. Actually, we stayed late because Noah was having so much fun checking out the different vehicles. We will be back next year, for sure!
