It’s here! The best weekend of the year.

Because I have the worst FOMO known to man, I’m happy to report I scored last minute tickets to Oaks and will be out at the track today and tomorrow.

So this is my official blog * out of office. * Hoping everyone has a weekend full of cashed tickets, mint juleps and fun with your favorite people.
