If you're coming to Louisville for the Derby Saturday, Please come a day early and attend "The Oaks" on Friday. It's a wonderful event billed as "Fillies, Lillies and More" to honor breast cancer survivors. Go here for pictures and information: http://www.kentuckyderby.com/kentucky-oaks . All attendees, both women and men, are encouraged to wear pink. Hey, no problem here!
This is such a popular event that all the schools are closed... Not because the kids won't come, but because the teachers won't. Anyone who loves beautiful dresses, beautiful hats and beautiful women (I suspect that includes most of us) should attend this event or at least check out the pictures.
Look for me in my pink strapless gown and my pink picture hat!
Well, a girl can dream,

Yes, seeing Southern Belles
in their finery is always a treat. And this is a great way to honor survivors and raise funds for research.

My Friend, Tamara's, Mother....
participated in the "Survivors Walk" last year and it's wonderful to know she is doing so well after going through Breast Cancer treatment
In the Pink!
Of course, for the more obvious reasons, to attend as a Northern Belle would be lovely. I lost two aunts to breast cancer, and would love to honor their memory.
