Weekend Roundup!

Chris and I packed up and headed to Richmond this past weekend.  Lora and Matt have been asking us to come down for a while, but between weddings, parties, and other things we had not had a chance to get back there since February.

We got into Richmond late friday- we caught up with Matt, Lora, Cody, and Duncan some and then called it a night so that we could rest up for saturday!

Our friends, DJ and Leah, were hosting a Kentucky Derby party saturday night.  Lora and I spent all day saturday running around Richmond looking for the perfect hat/outfit for lora.  She waited until the last minute to find things to wear, imagine that?! :)

The party was so much fun!  Leah is from Louisville, so this was an event she was used to celebrating.  DJ and Lead even live on Kentucky Derby Dr. in Richmond- so funny!  They really outdid themselves- we had all of the traditional derby goodies.

We had Derby pie - which is pecan pie with chocolate chips....YUMMY!
We also had bourbon balls, mint juleps, hashbrown casserole, and much more.  The party was a success- too bad my horse didn't win!  Maybe next year!


Overall it was a wonderful weekend- we cannot wait to see Lora, Matt, and the boys again soon!
