Friday:
It was the gala for Morgan's 10-week Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Woman of the Year fundraiser. While she didn't win, she did raise nearly $49,000! So proud of her!
Saturday:
A group of us attended Austin's first Derby Fest in downtown. They blocked off 3rd street and had live music, a big screen tv and mint julips to go around! We ran into a friend of Scott's who was hanging out with a girl I grew up with - such a small world! We all picked a couple of horses and placed a $5 bet. I thought picking Wicked Strong and Uncle Sigh (who almost won!) was a good choice, but not so much. I love watching the Kentucky Derby, only missing a hat this year! And bucket list...I will watch in person one year! We had an early taco dinner and a couple more drinks before calling it an early night to watch more of Game of Thrones season 1.
I love seeing horses tied up to trees in downtown Austin. So Texas.
Sunday:
We had a lazy morning and watched more Game of Thrones before spending the day by the pool - so happy summer is here! Since the water was still a bit cold, it gave me a chance to read more of The Goldfinch - amazing book so far if you've been considering reading it. Now we're relaxing watching (or I'm trying not to pay attention due to any spoilers that may happen!) Game of Thrones and I'm patiently awaiting tonight's episode of Mad Men.
Not a cloud in the sky for the first pool day of 2014!
Have a great Monday and Cinco de Mayo! xoxo
