Kentucky Derby Day!

Yesterday was a GREAT Derby day!  By tradition, every year we make silly hats.We also have a picnic supper and eat in the living room while we watch the race.  This year we also had a Derby cake. We used Lissa's toy horses on it.  The green frosting was the grass and the brown is fudge frosting and that was the road the horses raced on.  There are roses at the end of the cake because everytime someone wins the Derby the horse gets a blanket of flowers around his neck.  The Derby was really good on tv too.  The horse that won came out of NOWHERE and won the Derby. We were all surprised.
