Storytime at the Firehouse

Every month the firehouses in our city do story time...awesome! We get a tour of the fire station, read a book, eat a yummy snack, talk to firefighters, see them in their attire, and get a close-up look at those awesome trucks. We went with some friends this month and it was so much fun!

I didn't get a picture of all our friends we went with to the station, but here are a few we shared the experience with.... They also sent us home with some goodies...pencils, coloring books, and their very own firefighter hat.
Carolyn's friend, Kaylen, trying on the hat- I couldn't' believe how heavy everything was that the firefighters wear - they said all their attire weighs about 50 lbs!
Angela and her good buddy, Tyler. Angela's most FAVORITE part of the whole experience was the juice box she got :) At the end of the day when we were sharing our highs and lows of the day, Angela very energetically told us that her happy part was "juice!" I think I know what I'm asking Santa to put in her stocking this year :)
Carolyn and one of her very best friends, Kaylen.
Let me know if any of you want to join us for another adventure to the firehouse...we want to go again....soon :)
