My Kentucky Derby Experience
The Kentucky Derby Viewing Party hosted by Verizon and Samsung to promote the Droid Charge
I used to live in Kentucky for about 5 years and never once had the opportunity to be able to attend the Kentucky Derby or see their magnificent Firework Display Thunder Over Louisville. It’s still something I want to be able to experience in the future when I have the opportunity. This year @LillianGarcia invited me to a Kentucky Derby party and I was all for it!I never been to one of these events and so next year I’m going to be prepared! I will get an outrageous crazy BIG hat that screams Melina Madness! :p
I had such a great time. I loved hanging out with Lillian, Lillian’s hubby Chris and Kat (@DawgKilla). I sampled the official Kentucky Derby drink, the Mint Julep, for the first time… Very Nice
I also played a serious game of Foosball with Lillian. I guess it was the funniest thing to see since we were in dresses and big hats :p
When two people are being competitive we end up being our own worst enemies when playing The Foosball! Good thing the Mint Juleps were on my side and I Won! Yes…. I did a dance and everything. BOOSH!
I absolutely loved seeing everyone all dressed up. Reminded me of movies from late 1800’s and early 1900’s. It was fun and gorgeous. I now have ideas on what I want to wear for next year. I’m excited! Watch out for 2012 Melina Derby Madness! Muahaha!
What makes everything so much fun is the company that you are with. I always have a great time hanging with my girls Lillian & Kat… only wish I had my Jillian there too… I miss her. Jillo!! Why you live so far away!!! Maybe next year you can celebrate too. Just for fun!
Here’s some pictures from the event!
