Fireman Howie!

We went to the city fire station today - they had an open house - which means I didn't have to cook lunch! The kids had a complete blast! They called Brynn up to do a dance to a song cause they thought she was so cute, and I couldn't get a picture, cause I was up there shaking it with her! LOL! They gave her a yellow fluffy stuffed bear - and she won't let it go anywhere! Hugs it, squeeze it and made everyone around her kiss it! LOL! It was So cute!

They had a fun little "mobile" type home (on wheels) that they piped some kind of mineral smoke into it (that's safe to inhale) - to show kids what a smoke-filled house would look like - and how there's less smoke on the bottom if you get low and crawl - all the kids enjoyed that little "escape house" too!

They had a HUGE truck full of liquid refreshment - Howie helped himself - he knew I wouldn't let him have Dr. Pepper because - well, it's just poison - but there was a new type of drink there, looked like it was in a sprite can - came out drinking it -- showed it to me and said it was the BEST drink he'd ever had! Thank you Brisk Ice Tea in a can! I let him have Dr. P...I mean - you know - the better of two poisons? LOL!

Then as we were about to leave, Howie came upon some clothes & wanted to try them on!!!

LOL! I guess you have to choose the lesser of the evils. That's one cute little firefighter you've got there. Oh, and Howie's cute, too. ;-)
