    Those look wonderful!!! I wish that time would have permitted for a Kentucky Derby Celebration here this year… but next year will be easier! Gehrig will be 1 yrs old, and my hubby won’t be in he middle of college grad/ finals! It looks like it will be a fun weekend!!!! Kentucky is gorgeous!

    I never would have thought to even think about the Derby had it not been for you but somehow I ended up flipping through channels and it was the pre-show for the Oaks race and holy cow! Amazing!

    For the year 2011, here are five of the best Android tablets ever released in the techie world:
    . They support USB, HDMI, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, network adapter, 3G and many more than the standard net books on
    the market. The version of Windows on my tablet pc is Windows XP and there is no difference between it and the PC that I don’t use anymore.
