Kentucky Derby

This past weekend was the most exciting 2 minutes in sports….the Kentucky Derby!  Matt and I are not big horse racing fans, nor are we big betters, but our friends hosted a Kentucky Derby party so, of course, we had to go!

We went all out in nice clothes, big hats, we drank mint julips and had Kentucky Fried Chicken.  It was a blast and Mike and Missy were wonderful hosts.

Mike was the big winner of the night betting $20 against the field on the eventual winner.  (He says the trick is to bet on the jockey, not the horse.)

Can’t wait to do this again next year!
