Bobo is a CLASSIC!!.. the big 4-0

This "daddy" right here has a big birthday coming up so let him eat donuts today.. for tomorrow we will celebrate.  Daddy/ Daughter Donuts day 2016
Oh yeah...it's the big one!

And their off to Oaklawn park for the racing of the very first ever Bobo is a Classic.  And yes it will only come around every 40 YEARS...so you don't want to miss it!  
I threw a party for Mitch this year and we had a great time celebrating with friends and family.  The day started off with the running of the "Bobo is a Classic" race at Oaklawn followed by dinner with around 50 or 60 of our friends and family upstairs at the Silk's Bar and Grill. 

The official race photos...we had quite a crew on the track so you probably can't see faces but it made for a great reminder of the day. Plus the birthday boy got to do the honors and present the owners with their trophy.  

The Fowler Girls at Oaklawn 
The whole family came to the track to support the race.

I think it is safe to say that Mitch had himself a good time with lots of great friends!! 
Happy 4-0 Mitchers!!
