A few weeks ago, on our way to the grocery store, our local firefighters were trimming the firehouse trees in front of their station. They had the fire engine with the ladder out to get up in the trees. Since the fire engine was out we decided to pull over so MA could see it up close!
We were standing on the sidewalk when Dennis came by to talk to us. The firemen had to do lawn work so they are responsible for doing the work around the station. Dennis let take some pictures of MA on the fire truck and even let him sit in the drivers seat and play with the wheel! MA sure had fun!
So, this past week the fire station had a big banner saying that there was going to be an Open House on Sunday and the community was invited. We took MA there and the first thing he saw was the local police car and the fire chief was greeting everyone as we came in.
We stood in line so MA could have a go with the fire hose. They were letting the kids hold the hose and turn on the nozzle and spray the fake window! He got to see the ambulance and the HazMat vehicle. The line was too long for fingerprinting so we skipped that and also the line for bike helmets (they were giving those away for free).
Before we left, MA and VM had to get on the fire engine and explore one last time!
