Blaine was excited for us to come and spend some fun time with them as a family and also attend the Derby. We had a good turn out and had a fun time together. But we were also starting to accept that Dean just wasn't up to doing noisy, crowded things anymore. No one even tried to talk him into joining us, but rather he stayed in the house where it was still plenty noisy since it was 100 yards away.
It was loud, warm, and dusty - everything you expect a derby to be. All of the grands seemed to enjoy it, and when it got to be too much Blaine's house was easily accessible and if one of them got tired Grandpa was there and could keep them safe.
All in all, it was a pretty sweet night. I am really starting to have problems with my eyes since our Oregon trip, so the dust was not something I appreciated but love these times together.
