Good morning everyone!! I have almost finished my first cup of coffee already, and am getting ready for my second! Little man decided to get up super early!
Speaking of Wyatt, if you have been reading here, then you know we have been battling some health issues with him this month. He seems to be on the upswing, fingers crossed and all the prayers please that we continue on this path.
Last Wednesday I did have the opportunity to go to outdoor yoga in the park in my city. I can’t tell you how absolutely refreshed I felt afterwards. The night was beautiful, warm but not too warm, breezy, with swallows chittering overhead. I could have just stayed on my mat all night but I did have to go home. Lol. And yep, I totally wore my Agatha Christie t-shirt. I 100% needed this after the time we have been having! I was planning going this week but it is going to be close to 100 degrees Wednesday so I think I will skip it… otherwise I will melt and pass out probably. I’m not an outdoors heat kind of person.
This weekend we were able to get out a little bit more, and we had such a nice weekend. A slow paced one, which I love.
Wyatt has been asking to ride the train at Greenfield Village for WEEKS, and we finally had the chance to go and ride it on Saturday. He was ecstatic. We rode it all the way around twice, and he would have been ok with us doing it all day, honestly, but it was time to get him home after twice around. One day I think I am going to take him and pay for the all day ride pass and we will go on all of the transportation options that day. The antique cars, the horse and carriages, the train, the carousel. He will love it. We did have a few extra moments, so we took a quick little zip around the makers area, where all the potters, weavers, artists are.
Later that night, we went to my brother’s for an impromptu cookout, where I got to hold Tiny Bebe the whole night practically and chat with my niece Mermaid Girl, who I have been missing! She was having us solve the mystery of the smashed mushroom, and my Detective name is now Detective Sapphire, in case anyone wants to hire me.
The next morning I took my mom to church. We started going again a few weeks ago, and that also has been so good for my soul and spirit. It is a nice quiet time between my mother and I as well, just the two of us. And although it felt super weird, I couldn’t resist snapping this quick photo before services of this window. The stained glass is beautiful.
Later that afternoon, we took a ride and then ended up taking refuge from an incoming storm at the nature center at the Metropark we were traveling through. Wyatt was very happy about this unscheduled stop!
I was happy because I had forgotten they had a whole huge display full of information about the Wyandot tribe, and learning about a local tribe is part of our history curriculum this fall. So I was pretty excited!
And here are some just random little photos of the past few weeks..
That last picture of Wyatt and the framed map – my friend Kelly was out shopping and spotted this treasure and she knew I would love it. She didn’t even know that Wyatt absolutely loves learning about all the state birds! It is so perfect for us, and is the sweetest gift!!
And now, I am off to grab that second cup I mentioned! I hope you are all doing well, and staying safe. This weather is wild!

What a great week! Love those sunglasses.
I hope Wyatt is feeling better this week, and I’m glad he got to go on the rides. Have a great week.

I’m so glad Wyatt is feeling better. I remember riding the train at Greenfield Village when I was a kid. Everything is better on a train!
Have you ever done yoga with goats? I’ve wondered about that…like do they poop and you still have to do your downward dog with the poo in your face?
I really like that photo of Billy and Wyatt…such a sweet moment.
Have a fabulous rest of the week, Erin!

Praying that Wyatt continues to feel better and better!
When my youngest granddaughter was young we’d take her to Busch Gardens and all she wanted to do all day was ride the train, so we did 🙂
I only know of one place even close to me that does outdoor yoga and that’s a little over an hour away, which is too far to go.
All 3 kids are so cute and nothings better than time with family!
I love stained glass and that is beautiful! I’d like to start going to church again but right now there are a few people out at work so I’m having to work Sunday’s until they come back.
Love your random photos, especially the ones of the teeny tiny piggy toes & Wyatt and Billy!

Thank you so much Vicki!
I am definitely giving Wyatt that experience this summer, maybe fall even. We will just go and ride that train until he is done with it. Lol.
Thank you! I love my time with family. 🙂
It felt so good to be back in church again. It’s been quite some time and I am enjoying it very much.
Aren’t those toes so adorable!!! And I love that photo of Wyatt and Billy so much. 🙂

The train ride sounds wonderful and spending the day there sounds even better! I’m so glad Wyatt is feeling better and was able to go. And outdoor yoga sounds fantastic! I need to get back to doing yoga regularly. I feel so much better when I’m regularly practicing. And I love the Detective Sapphire name. Sounds like you did good investigative work!
