Derby Party

Jacob attended his very first Kentucky Derby party on Saturday. Because daddy's family is from Kentucky, it's a very big deal around here! We went over to Jennifer and Ed's house to enjoy delicious food and great fun watching the big race!

The table was full of traditional foods such as cheese grits, benedictine, bourbon balls, and ham and biscuits. Dessert was delicious Derby Pie, which is simply the best!


Jacob watching intently as the horses raced, cheering on his own pick to win!

Jacob's horse won and he received a prize!


Of course, no Derby party is complete without a hat!


Now it's time to try on Jennifer's hat! I think he actually liked this one better!

Jacob and our two wonderful hosts. We had such a great time and look forward to next year!
