CHOO CHOOOOOOO!!!! & a sunset.

After dinner we took a drive around the area were C & A live. Our first stop was to watch the sunset near the railroad tracks. It was a beautiful sunset over the empty pastures. Crystal and I decided to have a little fun while we were there. My momma always said don't play in the street but I don't recall her ever saying anything about playing on the tracks. So we went for it, trying to see how high we could jump. While we were acting like crazy people jumping off the tracks the kiddos were watching in the car. They so badly wanted to come join in, so I think Crystal and I might take them back tomorrow and get some pictures of them. It was loads of fun and we got some good laughs out of it. It reminded me of the new Footlooes movie that I watched for the first time a couple weeks ago.


We then made our way to Farm King, which is a local store here that seriously sells a little bit of everything. Let me tell you, yall I'm in the COUNTRY. City girl gone country and I have to say I'm kinda enjoying it. But shhh don't tell the hubbs, see he wants to move to the country when he gets out of the Army so he can have his own gun range. I think I could maybe handle it if it wasn't to far out from the city but we will see. Making our way to a local tractor store to check out some John Deer tractors. I was able to see what a combine is, which are the tractors that Adam helps build at J.D. It's awesome to see how excited he is about what he dose and how much he enjoys it. He is holding true to the statement "do what you love". A trip out wouldn't be complete with out a stop at Mickey D's for a yummy shake. Another first for me and I have to say it was pretty tasty. On our way back home we stopped at the railroad yard to took at all the trains and tracks. Something about standing on top of bridge watching the trains pass under while the wind was blowing through my hair really made me miss my hubbs. Being away from him this time around has been tuff for the both of us. I think its because we didn't get to spend much time together the two weeks prior to me leaving. I am having a fabulous time and completely enjoying my break from work but I'm missing my love oh so so much that it makes my heart hurt. We've got some artsy fartsy plans for tomorrow which should be fun, plus a surprise dinner date. Oh I can't wait.
