What we have been doing

Yep you guessed it spending time at the speedway. It's that time of year for us. Tonight was the second race of the season which was supposed to be the third. But due to first race being rain out, it didn't happen. This picture is actually from last weekends MSA race, Jay finished third which was great. He was the first Oswego regular to cross the finish line. Which was a great accomplishment. This is his third year racing this division and every time he straps a wing on his car he gets better and better. Tonight was a non wing show which most are due to something breaking in the rear of his car he was not able to compete in his heat race so he started 21 out of 22 cars his finish was 10th place, he had 9th till the last second of the race he backed off a little because he was heading into the rear of another driver. The driver next to him knew he was backing off so he went for it. He also did a great job of avoiding wrecking his car tonight. A car he couldn't pass thru out most of the race spun right in front of him, Jay's nose was heading right for the spun cars nose and he did a great job of getting his car out of that situation within inches of a terrible crash.

Makayla was supposed to end year round cheer this past Friday, but that isn't happening now. Since they have over 100 new cheerleaders signed up for regular season in all different age groups the cheer-coordinator wants the year round squad to show their stuff with their competition cheer at the parents meeting on July 30th. Regular season starts the first week of August so these girls are going to be practicing and cheering all the way until the end of October now and then all year cheer will start up again somewhere between November and January. Talk about commitment, this is it.

I have a few birthday presents to get done this coming week so will post pictures when they are done. First set has to be finished tomorrow by 1:00 and I am no where near done.
