Fire Ladder Truck





We had just found out on Friday that we were unable to go into town and Megan and Austin were pretty sad so I asked them what they wanted to do in the afternoon in Maricopa. The first words from Austin's mouth was fire truck. Then Austin said the ladder truck. So right after he told be I called up a friend who is a chief and was based at the ladder truck that day. What luck!!!! So we invited some friends to come along. It was really nice of the firemen to let the kids squirt the hose, try their equipment on, and sit in the fire truck and honk the horn. I think the best part was when they took the ladder and put the hose thru and squirted the water and got the kids wet. I didn't expect that to happen but they are very cool to have done that for the kids. My kids are very odd they don't like splash pads or really getting wet unless we are in our backyard or if Matt is with us. The Buckmister and Badgers kids both went for getting wet and cooling down. No way no mine they rather stay dry and sweat. There were so many flies around Orrin that I felt bad not letting him get out and walk around. Megan did have fun walking up and down the curb where some water was she is sometimes in her own little world. We had fun, thanks for all that came and to the firemen who are very cool!!!!
