My Birthday

My mom took Gavin and I out to eat at Applebee's for lunch. Then we all hung out together for the entire day. Mom took us home to get ready for the World of Outlaws race. When we arrived home, there was a cute birthday cake on the table from Matt's mom. She also gave me a picture that said Gavin, Casey, Matthew with Family really big behind our names. That was really nice. We dropped Gavin off at the sitter's house and we were off to the races. Matt's mom bought the V.I.P box, which was dumb, so we found our way to our box and watched the cars warm up. We saw Matt's favorite driver who has retired and went to the pits to find his trailer to get a shirt. The driver was Sammy Swindell. I purchased my shirt and had him autograph it. We were on our way back to the box when we ran into one of our friends who told us that Kasey Kayne was there with his driver. So, I wanted his autograph, then we ventured back towards where we just came from and I said, I dont know what he looks like! So we ran into a friend of Matt's side of the family and she grabbed her granddaughter who had already been to his trailer to show me where he was. I got his autograph and a picture taken with him. We went back to the box and watched the show. In the end his driver, Joey Saldana, won it all! What an awesome race, what an awesome night! This was just July 8th my actual birthday. Over the weekend we went to River Valley Campground to camp out and ride horses. It was fun, there was a ranch style rodeo fridday and saturday. I ran into my Aunt Glenna who we havn't seen for lots of years. Sunday we had an organized trail ride Glenna, her son Joe, his daughter Cierra, Matt, and I all rode together. It was fun. My weekend was left with a sore butt from the saddle, maroon sunburn on my shoulders and face, blister on my heel, and certainly exhausted. I also lost my cell phone somewhere! This year was an awesome birthday!
