Friday night we left the kids with a sitter and went to Churchill Downs. They have started night racing in the summer and call it “Downs after Dark.” It’s a pretty big deal and the boxes sell out weeks in advance. We got a box right on the finish line but you can also just hang out in the paddock area where there is a band, happy hour and a DJ at night. It basically turns into a nightclub with everyone dancing. It looked fun, but we stayed in our box to bet and watch the races. We didn’t win anything but had a great time. Marci had driven us all in the swagger wagon so we headed out for some La Bamba afterwards. The kids did great with the sitter and there were not any Camille incidents! The theme of the night was “Boots, Brews & BBQ” so Melissa, Marci and I all wore our boots. Aren’t we cute?
