Train Ride

2 weekends ago, Jared, myself, my sis and Brent went on the train to downtown San Diego. (I have pictures that I will post soon). Brent has been obsessed with trains ever since we moved to Carlsbad, because the tracks are right by the beach. There is also a little trail we walk along next to the train tracks, and he LOVES it. We waited at the train station for the train to come, and Brent was waiting so patiently, making sure he never took his eyes off the tracks in the distance. When the train arrived, he got on, and sat right in the chair. The ride was very picturesque, as we travelled along the coast. Brent was very serious, and calm the whole time. We had taken our bikes, and so when we arrived we got on our bikes and rode to Balboa Park. It is a HUGE park in San Diego with museums and fountains, and random musicians set up everywhere. There was a saxophone player named Mr. P playing....I don't like the saxophone, it reminds me of soap opera's in the the 80's. Brent liked it though, and he was very intrigued. It was so much fun discovering new places, and sharing a "first time" with Brent. Our next family fun will be to Legoland. Legoland is one exit north of us, and they let Carlsbad residents in for free for the last hour of the day. So basically we could go everyday, since it is so close. I'm just waiting for Jared to get work off a little earlier, so that we can all go together for the first time. It should be fun!

Injuries

In the past 2 weeks, Jared and I have both gotten pretty hurt. Jared a couple of weeks ago was out surfing in some big waves. There were alot of people at the surf spot, and he fell into the white wash, and someone else went under the wave, and when they came up, the tip of their board rammed into Jared's cheek like a screwdriver. He at first thought it went all the way through to the inside of his mouth, luckily it didn't. He has since recovered, and has a permanent dimple in his left cheek. I was just glad it wasn't his eyeball....gross I know. Last week, I was making a fresh peach pie, and I have sharp Henkle's knives. I have had these knives for a while now, and I have never cut myself. I was taking out a pit with the knife, because Brent wanted to play with it, and the knife slipped and shaved off the top of m index finger....it hurt sooooooooo bad! I had to go to the doctor because I was bleeding so much. It has almost healed, but has been a pain in the butt. So I really hope the trend of getting injured ends, it's not like we are doing outrageous things. Brent thankfully is fine, but I hesitate to say anything, fearing something has got to happen. Be safe everyone!
