Railroad Park

I forgot to talk about the Railroad Park. We went here on Sunday. Its over in Central Point on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month up until October. We had so much fun! There is no admission charge but I bought Kyler a engineer hat and we bought some food there and of course I donated money as well. The park is run by volunteers. They have lots of cars for you to get into. A train ride, well two train rides and there is a building full of model trains. Kyler really liked and Dan and I had a blast!

Other than that one the weekends Dan has been working on our backyard a lot. We are putting in a retaining wall for the pool and need to get the in-ground sprinklers in so that we can plant some grass. I am hoping its is at least a little grassy by Sept. so we can have Kyler's birthday out there. Its still a pirate them for the moment. I tried to switch it to a Train theme and have it at the Railroad Park, Oh lord! Do not try to switch it up on that child.

This is the life...

The last past week has been super nice weather. I was really starting to wonder if we would ever get a spring. Tuesday, on my day off Kyler and I spent a good amount of time outside. First playing Moon Sand (one of my least favorite gifts from the Grandma's) and then I planted some of the flowers Dan bought me on Easter. While Kyler practiced riding his bike. He really hasn't gotten the steering down yet.

I am back on the healthy eating plan. After gaining back about 10 of the 30 pounds I lost. I thought it was about time. So far I haven't been too bad with the exception of today's lunch. It could have been better. We will see what the end of the week brings.
