Rail Runner

Last weekend we went to Albuquerque for Roo's "supposed last weekend before he deploys" (though they still haven't decided if that's the case).  A couple of months ago I bought some Groupons for the New Mexico Rail Runner which goes up to Sante Fe.  I figured that we'd take the train up there, look around for a little bit and then take the train back to Albuquerque.  Well...the schedule is CRAZY!!  It leaves Sante Fe every 5 hours...which is a little too long for me to walk around in 100 degree heat carrying Ryan.  So I rode the train with Ryan for a couple of stops and then Roo picked us up.  The things we do for our kids.
So excited!

Thumbs up

Enjoying the AC.  As you can see he sweats.  A lot.

Video of Ryan on train

Probably very boring unless you're a Grandparent...just saying.

The fair

 Last week the fair was in town so we decided to go on "Dollar Ride Day".  There was a huge storm coming our way but luckily we didn't get rained out...though we did get a ton of wind and sand blowing everywhere. One of the joys of living in Clovis.  Ryan had a really good time!  My only regret is that we ate dinner before we went so I didn't get to partake in any fatty fair goodness.  Maybe next year.

 Waiting in line for the ferris wheel.

 The fair

 Roo then took Ryan on the carousel.  Ryan won't get on a horse..but the loves sitting in the seat.

 So excited to on the bumble bee...

 ...that's more like it.

 They wouldn't let us get in this ride with Ryan (I'll post video of it later).  We were super nervous about letting him go by himself--but he did great!  And I think I teared up a little seeing him ride it without me.

The cutest cow ever.

Such a big boy

Every once in a while Roo and I will ask each other how Ryan got so big...time flies! Here are some pictures where he looks so grown up
Totally ripped a hole in his diaper

I just think that he looks so big in his bed



Last weekend we took Ryan to Chuck-e-Cheese.  As expected, he LOVED it.  Now he'll try to put his shoes on and get in my car and ask to go to CEC....too bad we live so far away!

Bowling

Ryan has gotten back into bowling lately...which is fine by me because the bowling alley is air conditioned and it's like 150 degrees out.  Seriously.  He still does a really good job and I only have to get up every once in a while to help him.


After each ball he's started jumping.  It's his celebration dance.

Sharing my drink

Winking for the Grandparents.

Kimchi

While we were in Denver we stocked up on our Kimchi supply...and Ryan is really grateful that we did.

Roo flying

Today Roo was flying around on base and I just happened to be near in the car watching tractors with Ryan (that is a TON of fun). I'm not the best photographer...but I did manage to get some shots.
