Tracey is home a winner!

Tracey arrived this evening from California -- she is exhausted but also exhilarated because her tribe won in the Survivor Crop contest! They raised over $6,500! WOO HOO! :-) The even raised more than $50,000 towards breast cancer research and support. Everyone that participated is a REAL winner in my eyes!

Tracey's trip to Charlotte's airport was fairly uneventful (except for a 45 minute delay).

Noah, Tracey's mom and I spent the afternoon window-shopping (mostly) in Statesville, NC (at JR's outlet). We also drove around the NASCAR shops in Mooresville (although we sort of got lost and did not get to see as much as we wanted). Tracey called while we were doing this to let us know she would be at least 30 minutes late, so we decided to wash the car and have dinner to kill some time. The dinner experience (at Denny's) left a lot to be desired (I will write more about it later, because there is a funny side to it).

On the way to the airport we managed to get lost -- again! Even four-year old Noah knew we were lost. From the back seat: "Oh geeze, we are definitely lost!" Both occupants of the front seats bursted laughing.
