“On the way to @kentuckyderby with Dannielynn after a great night at the Barnstable-Brown Gala and quick morning haircut or two. Dannielynn’s dress was inspired by her favorite character Hino Eiji, Kamen Rider OOO TaJaDor combo — she made me write that 😆 — because that character had the same shoulders as the design of the dress she found! 🤷‍♂️ Hey whatever works, just trying to spend a little quality time as this weekend of traditions come to a close…” he wrote alongside the images as they stood next to a life-sized horse statue.
