A night at the races

Last week while Grandy was here we thought we would take her to the horse races and try our luck. We had a great time...won a little, lost a little and really enjoyed the beautiful night.
(Notice all the empty seats around us. Kids are great for keeping the crowds away)
Jenna, Kylie and Andrew checking out the horses before a race.
Deanna, Grandy and I pooled our money and placed some bets. No winners for the first 4 races or so, but then on race number 5 is where it got fun. We picked horse 8 to win and he did! $66.00 later we were cheering like we won the lottery...$22.00 a peice not bad. Enough for a couple of hot dogs. Did I mention that we happend to go on dollar dog night? What luck!

We had a great time. Jenna seemed to be the one that could pick the winners :)

I have NEVER been to a horse race. What's Jenna doing next week? I'm thinking maybe her and I can go and have a little fun plus I need the horse expert who can pick the winners. All I know is if were talking about winning $66.00 THAT'S BIG MONEY!! Looks like a GREAT time!!
