Chasing the Cheese



So a few of the couples from our weekly bible study decided to do something a little different....we went to the racetrack!!!



I have never been before and didn't know what to expect. I pictured fancy people cheering on their horses with passion! I kinda wished I could have worn my peacock hat from my bridal brunch but decided against it. Luckily I didn't. I guessed wrong. Most of the people there sat inside and just watched on the tv....almost like they were watching some boring sitcom. Passion and cheering was no where to be found. Well, except for us!!




We bet big and usually bet about $2 a race.


Danielle won the first race!



We got really serious when we found out you got place a 10¢ bet on guessing the first 4 places in a race.



Andrew and Trevor won the last race that everyone was there for (Andrew and I stayed behind for one more). Trevor was holding up a "5" in celebration of horse number 5 winning....Andrew thought he wanted a hand shake of some sort.



So they tried again...


Yay for fun times in Houston!
