And They're Off...

That is Bo and I were off to Hot Springs for our first night away from the kids. We left early Saturday morning and were back on Sunday by 2:00 - but it seemed like a LOT longer. We LOVE going to the races. Matter of fact, our first "date" in the US was at the track for Sigma Nu formal. As always there were a ton of people there and it was great to visit. We met up with the Lazenby's - who had a horse running in the 9th. It was so cool to go to paddock and watch them saddle her and talk to the jockey and trainer. She didn't pull through -but it was still fun to bet her. I highly recommend the Embassy Suites if your headed that way. Free shuttle to and from; complimentary cocktail hour; made to order omelets for breakfast; the most comfy beds (or maybe it was just that we enjoyed sleeping in so much).
Thanks so much to Babe and Pops for coming to take care of the kids!!!!
Here are some pics of Scamp and a Half.
