One of the local firehouses here was having an open house of sorts where you could go tour the facility, ride on the trucks, participate in extinguishing a fire, etc. Nate needed to visit a fire station for scouts & since I had only been home for about a week (and still had too much post surgery hardware attached to my being) Dan took the two big kids & left me home with the 2 little girls. It went just fine, the trip to the fire station was lots of fun & the accomplishment for scouts was passed off.
Nate has said off & on since he was in preschool that he wanted to be a firefighter when he grows - so this gave him some practice driving the truck - ok maybe not really - but hey he's not getting any closer than this anytime in the near future.
Abbie's turn
Going for a ride
Checking out the Ambulance
Dan and the kids met up with some of our friends there. You can see their blog entry here:
Fire Station
It has pictures of Dan using an extinguisher to put out a fire - none of those came home on our camera for obvious reasons.
I am grateful for Dan and his desire for our family/children to have so may great experiences as they grow.
