Santa Anita Park

Off to the races. This was such a fun day at Santa Anita Race Track. Thanks to free Fridays we were able to take advantage of the dollar hot dogs and up close accessibility to thorough breed horses. Thanks to Lauren and her family we got the full scoop on where you should be at all times. I had no idea you move around so much at the races. It was fun, fast paced, and not too crowded. Natalie and Fallon took advantage of the dollar beers.....JOKE! ;)

This gentleman here asked me if he could see the baby under the hat. I told him sure then he asked me how old my daughter was then he asked if she was teething . I said yes. He then gave me the advice to give her "just a leetle bit of Tequila every night, it will help her teething and she will sleep a leetle better". That is how we do it in Meheeco he said. Wow, thanks and that is something to consider Mr. Race Track Man. He wanted to put his hat on for the photo and I told him it was a "leetle" better if he left it off.


Fallon checking out the horses.

The baby under the hat.



Never ending battle of who gets the sippy cup.


Lauren showing Sienna how to pet the horsy soft. Sienna then reached out and pinched the very tip of his nose.....luckily he didn't bite her hand off.



Beautiful.



Mom showing her to pet soft...no pinching.





Natalie and Fallon with a very cute handbag I might add.


The whole gang minus one of Lauren's twins, Ethan (Sienna's love interest). Everybody should do this at least once with someone who knows what is going on. The funnest part was screaming as loud as you want for your horse to "c'mon go get em"....

I love horse races! We used to go to them every summer and when I finally turned 18 I was so excited to buy my first ticket to bet on the horses! It really is fun to scream and yell for "your" horse to win! I always chose the horses with the prettiest costumes!

I kinda want to go again... this Sunday is the last day of the season. Wanna go Friday?
Oh, and Ethan's cutting his molars this week and I decided to take Mr. Race Track Man's advice. Worked like a charm. Okay, so I didn't, but secretly, I'm willing to try anything. The poor little guy needs his girlfriend!

Seriously one of the best mommy dates EVER! So freakin fun. I hope you and Lauren have the worst time of your lives at the races without me... :)
