off to the races

So as Im sure you know New Zealand is a British Colony, which pretty much means if its English we do it too albeit it a little more grunge. I say this as The Races (horse) is quite the event. The men go watch the horses, and the ladies go well pretty much to wear a great hat.
There are many race days and this year we went to Derby (dar-bee) Day, A traditionally black and white affair. I thought I would pop up some pictures of the festivities.



This is our group in the Stella Artois tent (notice the product placement, haha) we were photographed by the next top model photographer, and we were voted best dressed!



My brother Ashley and his beautiful fiancee Natalie, looking as good as ever.



Ash competed in the annual Fashion Show, and made it to the National Finals! :)



he was possibly the only guy.........



I got very nervous for him, but so so proud of him.





apart from the wind and rain it was a perfect day :) and a big Thank you to the very talented Natalie Chan for designing all of our headwear.
