Filly Fling

Friday night was the Junior League's Spring Gala, and this year was Derby themed again, "Filly Fling" because the Friday before the Kentucky Derby the female horses (the Fillies) race. While I was getting dressed Ella Kate wanted to play with my hat, so I took her picture and showed it to her and she loved it. She's at such a fun stage!!!

Laura, me, and Kellie-- I can't believe they didn't wear their hats this year!

We won several things in the silent auction including memberships at the KMA and the Zoo, a few rounds of golf, dry cleaning, and this one the "Beans Beans Good For His Heart" package. The description said a "supply of Bush Brothers baked beans, a car tune-up, and a Pilot gas card." When we were collecting our winnings they said oh yeah- there are two baskets! We really had no idea that there were 20 CANS of baked beans and aprons, children's books, and two autographed pictures. They weigh a ton, too, getting those baskets to the car and home was a challenge. We'll be eating baked beans for months, too bad Ella Kate doesn't like them. She does, however, walk by the baskets and point to the infamous Jake and say "bop-bop" (her word for dog) and squats down and pats her leg as if to call to him- it's precious!
