Busiest Birthday Weekend of All Time: Part Three (KEENELAND!)

POST NUMBER THREE!!

 Let's get right to this...

So, sticking with tradition when Matt and Blair are in town, after the soccer game and brunch on Saturday we headed out to Keeneland.  Also keeping with tradition, I managed to bet on every single race we were there for, and yet STILL did not win a dime.  NOT A DIME.  Seriously, if you could bet on me losing, you would be a millionaire.


Here is a group shot of the family... I am in love with this picture and it will find its way to a frame in our house at some point... most likely a couple of years from now, since I am awful at changing frames.


Boo and Chris were there too!  Boo's glamour shot hand under her chin makes me laugh so hard ...

It was Nicole's first time to Keeneland, and I THINK she might have won money on every race... I know she went home in the positive, and that is pretty stinking amazing

And there are Matt and Blair, standing in the exact same spot!  I am not exactly creative with backgrounds when picture taking...

Surprise!  Candice and Kara,,,


And Nick and I.  I have recently discovered I have a "good side" to take pictures from.  This is not it.



for the second  year in a row we got to see the Headless Horseman!  Which was even more exciting due to my new addiction to the show Sleepy Hollow  ...

Chris, Boo, me and Nick

For the last race we decided to venture upstairs to the grandstands.  This is where we discovered we have apparently been doing Keeneland WRONG for YEARS.  Good to know... next time we will buy seats, and maybe someday I will figure out how the hell you get into the part that is actually closed in with like, heat and stuff...

a very dark picture of Nick and I... but THAT is my good side!  Now I know.

For the last race we all went in on a superfecta (picking the top four horses in the correct order)  and we ended up getting three of the four.  THREE OF THE TOP FOUR.  Boo said it was a moral victory, but I am not sure...

After Keeneland we went back to our house where we had dinner, cake, presents, played games and had an all around excellent time.  Somehow, the only pictures I have from that are ones with me blowing out candles... If you are curious, the cake was picked out by Nieem and says "Sarah is Boss"

I sorta love it :)
