Heber Derby!

We are official locals now that we have attended the Heber Derby. The derby is a big thing here, tickets usually sell out in a day or two. Luckily, this year Grandpa Symen had extra tickets. We got to the derby at 6 thinking it was going to start at 6, however, it did not start till 7. While we were waiting it started to rain on us.

We survived through the rain and the derby finally got going. Man was it fun. Emilee and Garrit had a blast watching the cars crash into each other. They were cheering for their favorite car in each round. Even, Zane loved it. He sat on my lap and did not move during each round. He would cheer along with the other kids.

Symen ended up leaving early to take Garrit and Zane home, however, Emilee wanted to stay and watch the end of the derby and the fireworks at the end. So, the girls stayed till the end even with the threat of rain. Unfortunately, Symen missed the best part, the trucks, the little cars, and the final round. The final round was awesome because the drivers went all out. They were driving for $2,000. We are thinking about entering Symen in next year.

We all had a great time and look forward to doing it again next year.
