Sorry, everyone. I failed to post my picks for the Derby prior to heading out to the track yesterday morning. I was running a bit late - oops! Another year down and another close victory. This year was the closest we have been yet to hitting it big time. We picked the top 5 horses, but we needed Bodemeister (2nd place horse) to finish ahead of I'll Have Another (1st place horse) and we would have been filling out our tax forms. Bummer! I won on some side bets, but there is always next year, right?!
We followed up our "loss" with a fun dinner with friends before we called it a night. What a long day it was, but so much fun. I am already planning for next year to make the trip back down to Louisville - we had a great time at Arlington, but nothing beats being a part of the live action at Churchill! It was a nice "break" this year, I suppose, but we will be ready to rock in 2013.
Lots of relaxing and laundry today to get ready for another week. I cannot believe it is already May - where has this year gone? Luckily it is a rainy afternoon, so we do not feel too guilty for bumming around the house and catching up on some TV while we tidy up!
