Fire Station!

Last weekend we went to a fire station open house. Sadly, only the two youngest and mom went because dad and Miss A had to work.

Anyway, I heard about the open house and thought it was going to be small, quick, fun. Oh no. It was big - lots of people, booths, give-aways, SWAG, even free lunch for all of us. They even had little fire outfits for the kids to put on and try out some of the fireman's duties.

They even got to help spray a real hose - so fun!

This is my favorite picture of the bunch:

They also took a car apart to demonstrate how they do that - even I was mesmerized watching! It was kind of neat (of course I do hope that I never have to see it outside of a demonstration again!)

We also spent time exploring inside and outside a couple firetrucks and an ambulance. One of the more fun things we did was take all sorts of pictures of the everything and then we came home and created a collage of the pictures. I can't wait for it to arrive so we can hang it up! =)

Blink.

Sometimes it feels like a year goes by in just the blink of an eye. Of course, it doesn't happen like that. But life does happen and so sometimes a year flashes by and a blog doesn't get updated in that time.

Ahem.

Yes, it's been a year. Actually 13 months since I was last here. Don't worry though, I've been neglecting all my blogs this year =) It just goes that way sometimes!

So for fun, just a few shots of the kiddos. Because I could try to go into detail about the past year, but instead just a few pictures should be good for now =)
