CHOO CHOO

Braylen's train set that we ordered from eBAY came last nite. He had a set from Brio with 8 curved wodden tracks and 4 train cars. This set has 170 pieces & is compatible with his old set. After we had dinner, I put the boys in the bath & Corby unpacked and put a very detailed track together. I'm not sure who had more fun, Corby or Braylen. I'm also not sure which one of them got more frusterated with Tucker, A.K.A Godzilla. He just wants to walk on the track. Corby builds him a smaller one so he doesn't send Braylen off the deep end, but it only lasts a few minutes. Braylen played with his train set for 3 hours straight. He is already playing with it again this morning. The only problem is with getting Braylen to share the 21 trains he has. Poor Tucker can't get one! Braylen will set up a train with 15 cars all attached. So this morning we are sneaking Tucker a car or two (right now he has the police car. Hi Uncle Brett!) Corby leaves on the 4:30 am flight for Vegas tomorrow. He will be back next Saturday in time for Father's Day. He is meeting with our realtor in Vegas to look at some neighborhoods. We have made a decision for the summer. Corby will leave middle of July to go to Vegas for 2 weeks. I initially was going to stay here in TLF & wait for him to come home at the beginning of August & we would travel together that first week of Aug to St. Louis before Corby went on to Shreveport. Corby was talking about taking a few days of leave so he could possibly stay in STL for a few days, which would mean he would only be back in Minot for a day or two. We decided that I would come home in July when he left for Vegas since we would only see him for a day when he got back. It didn't seem a good idea anymore to stay in TLF & pay for TLF for two weeks, when we would just be waiting for Corby & see him for a day. So, the boys & I will be home in July (Cheryl, I hope your offer of a place to stay still stands) & Corby should be joining us for a few days at the beginning of Aug before heading down to Louisiana. So, that's all we have for now. Time to get going on the day...
