Keeneland

We visited the Lexington area last weekend, meeting up with Brett, Rachel, Maggie, Aubrey, Aiden, Dad and Tammie.  Why Lexington?  Horses, of course!  All the kids love horses and Maggie, Aubrey, and Aiden have been taking riding lessons.  Olivia is signed up for a horse riding camp this summer.  Perfect place for a quick weekend- did the horse races at Keeneland impact our trip?  Possibly...

Hanging out with some jockeys:
























Suffice to say, we aren't great at picking horses.  We should have stuck with the "bet on whatever horse Tammie bets on" plan.  She can pick them!

Heading to the pool:















































Notice that Paige is missing in the above picture.  Here's what she did the entire time:
























She was terrified of the water.  I foresee swim lessons!

We checked out and headed to the Horse Park in Lexington:
























Checking out the Secretariat statue:





































































Fun trip!  Olivia cried for an hour after we left.

She perked up when the weather was nice enough to ride bikes:
