Life with the Gs: Trains, Trains, and more Trains

For G1's birthday he got a couple Thomas train sets. Tuesday we set them up. I think Matt and I were more excited about them than G1 was at first. : ) After setting them up we put G3 in the middle. At first she wasn't quite sure what to think, but then she got excited and tried to attack the trains.

We had gotten a couple expansion packs to add more pieces to the train set. The one pack had 52 pieces and was really cool. We would have been able to have the trains go up over a road. We were pretty excited about it. Well, when we got it open we realized we didn't have some of the right pieces. We took it back to the store to exchange it, but the were all out.

: ( That was pretty disappointing. Oh well, G1 thinks it is pretty cool the way it is.

Wednesday we went to look at a house that is for rent in Abingdon (it's a itty bitty town right outside Galesburg). The house seems pretty nice. We just need to discuss it some more and decide what we really want to do. After looking at the house we went to Galesburg. It was the grand opening of the SuperWal-Mart. While there G1 and Daddy got their picture taken with Chester the Cheetah (the Cheetos character). The new store is pretty nice.
