Kentucky Derby

A friend invited us to a Kentucky Derby party last weekend. We all found hats and went! We bet money on horses, but unfortunately none of our horses won. That's okay though, Ben was still the cutest in his little fedora. Thankfully he was very cute because he pooped on someone who offered to hold him :(

The girls had a blast. It just so happened that another family from Eleanor's preschool was invited so she had one of her good friends there. They ran off to the playground (and included Jane, thankfully) and were gone almost the entire party. By the time we left, the girls were so dirty it was incredible. When we peeled off their name tags, there was a clean patch on their dresses and an outline of dirt around where it had been!

We stayed up late and outside of a couple Jane meltdowns near the end and both girls needing to go potty in the middle of the race causing me to miss the actual ending (which is a feat, because the race lasts less than 2 minutes and the only time they had to go potty in the 4 hours we were there was during these 2 minutes), it was a success.

Happy derby day!

I can't get over Ben in that hat with that smile!! That fedora should be part of his normal attire. And so awesome when the girls are able to go entertain themselves without you for a while!
