Kentucky Horse Park.

Home of the 2010 Equestrian Games.


Max got to sit in a rescue helicopter, he thought that was pretty awesome.






This past weekend we had a chance to go the Kentucky Horse Park ( free admission day!) full of fun festivities. The highlight was the Grand Prix jumping competition. It was really great to watch, and Maxwell got really into it. Whenever a horse would fault by knocking a pole down, he would join the crowd in moans, and say;
"He broke the stick."
Even though it was about 100 degrees outside we still had a fabulous time.

Looks like fun! The boys are getting so big. They look older in these photos. I really like the one of them in the big chair.

Torie,
The Derby is at a place called Chruchhill Downs, this is the Kentucky Horse Park, where they do Equestrian games, Polo, Pole jumping, and other horse events, it is a HUGE park. You can even camp, stay at a hotel, visit two mueseums and enjoy a meal at their resturant there.

That's so great that you live near that kind of stuff. A little girl's dream come true. :) That pic of Evan in the stroller is yummy! He is too cute.
