Kentucky Derby and Mother's Day!




We always head down to Jason's hometown (Louisville, KY!) to celebrate the running of the Kentucky Derby....it's become a tradition for us! One of his parents' very best friends' throw a get-together that weekend and we always have such a good time going! The girls always look forward to going! : ) We have lots of great food, fun watching the races and lots of kiddos for them to play with. I always tease Jason that one of these days, he's going to take me to the Oaks (the race the day before the Derby) so I can wear a fancy hat and dress and walk around the track grounds for fun!

Some other news around the Massey house....recently, I've started a new exercise program....I kind of got burned out on my P90 program that I did most of last year. It worked great but I guess I'm the kind of person that needs constant entertaining (sort of like my kids...wonder where they get it from??!!!) so I am now doing the "Wave" workout and love it! It's fun so I don't feel like I'm just exercising but enjoying it too! The girls (the little two, Allie is usually at school when I work out) like to get out their step stool so they can mimic what I'm doing with my "wave" step so they join in on the fun with me! I'm posting a couple of pictures of their "workout"! ; )

The other fun event around here recently was Mother's Day! The girls did a great job (as always!) of making me beautiful cards and they had breakfast waiting for me when I woke up, along with some really pretty flowers! We headed to church in the morning and then spent the afternoon with family at my parent's house, where we decided to have none of the mommies work that day but instead enjoyed fried chicken out of the famous "bucket" -- yummy! A great and relaxing day to celebrate being a mommy and having a mom too!
