How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Fast Cars, Disney & A Happy Hubby ~WW

in Travel on 01/28/14

It’s an almost Wordless Wednesday flashback!

Have a man in your house that used to dream about becoming a race car driver?  Or a man like mine, who just adores cars and loves him a super fast set of wheels?  Then the Richard Petty Driving Experience at Walt Disney World is not to be missed!  This was my gift to SassyHubby just a couple of years ago and I couldn’t wipe the smile of his face for days.

Confession:  Felt good to be the bestest wife ever. 

Please leave a comment and don’t forget to link up your Wordless Wednesday’s in the linky below! I will be sure to return the favour!

      I do think that would be a fun experience!

        It was an experience he will never forget! (plus then he had to get really creative when my birthday rolled around)

      I envy you being able to “rent” the husband-dream-come-true-experience. I had to buy it. Twice. Hence, the two motorcycles in my garage.

      • Stephanie says

        February 2, 2014 at 9:11 pm

        Gulp. Two motorcycles!! You are wife of the year!

      I’ve known others who really enjoyed those driving schools. It can be a great gift to give.

      • Stephanie says

        February 2, 2014 at 9:09 pm

        February 2, 2014 at 9:08 pm

        Not only that it was so much fun to watch him scratch this off his bucket list!

      January 29, 2014 at 3:35 pm

      You hit a home run with that one! I bet he can’t wait to get back there one day.

      • Stephanie says

        February 2, 2014 at 9:05 pm

      I have to admit, that is pretty wife-of-the-year-award-worthy. Must have been a blast!

      • Stephanie says

        February 2, 2014 at 9:04 pm

        Honestly, it was almost as much to give to him as it was for him to drive that car!

Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
