Party Fun!

Saturday morning we headed off to go Sam's birthday party. Sam is turning 3 and he loves fire trucks, so we started the birthday party off by visiting one of our Fire Stations. The fireman talked about all that the fire truck did, they gave us a tour of the fire station, they talked to the kids about what fireman do, asked the kids some questions, they even called dispatch and had them sound the alarms so the kids could hear the different alarms.


Once they finished the tour we went back outside and one of the fireman was dressed up in their gear. He wanted to show the kids what a fireman could look like if they had to come into their home to get them, so they wouldn't be afraid. The kids were fascinated by the mask and him breathing through the mask.



Bree wouldn't go up to the guy all dressed up. I looked over and poor Bree is still holding her ears afraid that the alarms were going to go off again. One of the fireman came up to here to try and reassure her that they weren't coming back on but she wasn't believing him. I told Sam's mom Mary, that I would be sending her the therapy bill. :)



The kids still enthralled with the fireman's gear.
