Pre-Derby Festivities

B competed in the Kindergarten Derby at her school this week and we went to watch! Z and Ak wore hats! (: A few of the teachers had some NICE ones!!! (: They had each class parade out while "Run for the Roses" played! I love that song! There's B below in pink pants and the redish shirt.
"And they're off!!!" (they had about 12 kids run at a time) They just ran one lap around the gym.
Here's the middle of the race as they came by us. There is B below - she wasn't last - but not first either. (:
Each jockey got a rose!
It was a fun little activity to watch!Then there was a little dancing in the "infield" after the derby for all!
Fun Activity! I'm glad we got to go.Here are my sister's girls getting ready for their Kentucky Derby Party!
Aren't they adorable in these hats!!! (:

I do not get derby.. maybe because I am a Kentucky implant.. but making horses race for gambling doesnt make sense to me..

I do love the hats tho!

Fun activities for B and the families get to watch! I like her jockey hat. :)

What a cool activity. I sure do miss living in KY. Trying to talk Larry into it. Just depends on where CFO positions are available when he is ready to look.

Hey there! I love B's horse and hat! And that's nice that all of the jockey's got a rose! That was a great idea for Derby week!

Also B's face sure was red! She must have run hard! : )
