Our favorite fire station

Posted on 10:40 AM by paritory
We visited our local fire station as a family when we first arrived to Palo Alto, and T has not forgotten Sunny the firefighter who gave him a hat and gave him free reign of the ambulance. It was a great experience, so we were excited when our courtyard decided to go to the fire station together.  

All the kids took turns shooting the REAL fire hose. I'm pretty sure T would have taken it home with him if he could have.

All of the firefighters we met were kind and informative and SO patient with the kids...especially with Talmage who decided to "answer" every question, volunteer for every activity (even when other kids were chosen) and always managed to somehow get on the truck...invited or not! He's becoming more outgoing by the day and I mostly love it!

Evie is such an easy baby. He sat on the grass with two hats on his head while I chased around his brother and took pictures. What a babe!

T decided that the hat worked better (and looked cooler) when it blocked the sun from his eyes. This kid cracks me up. 

Both kids got to sit in the driver seat of the fire truck and loved, loved it! Evie was especially proud of himself while sitting in the truck. He seriously would not, or maybe could not, stop smiling.

But all those smiles came to an end when I handed him over to the fireman for a photo op. Bad idea Mom, bad idea.

This year is coming to a close and it's sad to see that many of these kids will be moving soon. The courtyard won't be the same without all our friends.
