The Fire Station...

Our friend MB invited the kids to go visit him at the fire station today. And what a visit it was!!! He took the kids up in the air on a ladder truck, let them climb inside (and on) 4 different kinds of trucks, let them try on his gear and gave them a tour of the station. It was so much fun and the boys were so thrilled. I am so grateful for friends who love our kids enough to take time to hang out with them and share things like this. At no point in time did he treat the kids like an inconvenience or get frustrated with their numerous questions. I know this is a day they won't forget for a long time!

Z's Fire Station Quote: "I liked the kitchen best because that is where all the fire fighters eat their dinner."

I'm glad he understands that the tree being on fire would constitute an emergency...smart kid! :-D
