Opening Day at Churchill Downs

The week before the Kentucky Derby, we were in town for the Derby Festival MiniMarathon.  That night, we went to Opening Day at Churchill Downs!  It was my first time sitting in the grandstand at Churchill and actually watching horse racing (despite my having gone to the Derby 5 years)!  Lots of fun!!

Buzz Birthday Bash

Last weekend was my nephew’s 4th birthday party.  The whole fam was in town to celebrate at the Buzz Lightyear themed fiesta.  The birthday boy was thrilled to get all his Toy Story themed toys.  Below are pictures from the party and a few of the kids at grandma and papa’s house.
