Derby Time

I've been MIA from the blogger world for a while and keep hearing how much my family HATES seeing "Guacamole" every time they visit my blog, so I decided I should venture my way back.  Since it's Kentucky Derby time this weekend I thought I would share a little flashback from the time I went back in 2010.  Seems so long ago!  It was a last minute decision to attend but it was such a blast!  Even though it poured the entire time and my feet were covered in mud and I ruined my shoes...still a blast!  If you've ever been to the Derby you know what to expect, but if you have never attended I will let you in on a little secret.  The Derby consists of mint juleps, cigars, and the three crazies...crazy outfits, crazy people, and of course the crazy hats.  Most of these crazies can be explained by the mint juleps...HAHA!

Horse hat...odd...

Pre-Race

Protect the Hat!!!!

Budweiser Clydesdales

Nothing like an buttless chaps to celebrate Derby Day

And it begins!

This hat was my favorite!

No words for this one...

Hat parade!

From the start

Ruined my shoes...so muddy!

Me and the Clydesdales

Of course mud wrestling had to break out...

 

 

So packed!

Have any of you been to the Kentucky Derby?  If not...you should attend at least once.  It's quite the experience!
