Steeplechase
Dad and Pam took our family, and both my brothers and their families to steeplechase. We had beautiful weather, which was a nice change from the last 2 trips(cold and wet, and raining the next). We squeezed into 2 cars and left bright and early (with bloody mary’s in hand). We first went to the kids area to let them play, which was probably a mistake, because they all loved it, but it was all a rip off at the same time. Then we ate at our tailgate, which was delicious and then went to claim our spot on the hill to wait for the horses. For each race everyone picked the horse they thought would win. This was a fun way to do it to keep the kids interested in each race(which was only 3 minutes long with 30 minutes in between). We had great company and a lot of fun, thanks to all parties involved!
 You must wear a hat to steeplechase! ZZ made all the ones for the little girls.
