On the third day of Christmas...


Our little family of two experienced a tragedy this last summer. One we still have not quite recovered from.  It was a bittersweet marker in our lives together. In the end, it was just the right time. And life goes on.

We sold out.

We took a government bribe of $3500.

We replaced yellow and red for dark silver paint.

We made a decision.

We said goodbye to our faithful Trans Am, Red Dragon.

And we never stopped loving him.

To honor him this year we gave him our third day of Christmas. On today's agenda we purchased our yearly Christmas ornaments. This is a tradition my mom started that I have carried through to my new family.


To honor Red Dragon we purchased Hot Wheels cars and turned them into ornaments.


Red Dragon. We miss you and love you. We know you rumble on in race car heaven. Here's to you. May your memory live on with Christmas Spirit.
