Fire Safety Day

Several weeks ago we attended the city's Fire Safety Day...as if we could miss it! No offense to the fine firemen of our great town...but they really need some women to get in there and organize this thing a bit better!

Anyway, this year the kids showed an interest in the obstacle course...or maybe we just forced them to do it!

First, they listened to what the fire alarm sounds like...
Then they "rescued" the girl from the burning building...
Though, I have to say, that girl needed some girlie clothes! Poor thing!


Then came crawling through the smoke and stop, drop and roll.
This was the best pose I could get of the two of them. The girl was not pleased to be wearing the coat!
Next was the horrendously long line for the slide (or escaping the burning building). Carinna wouldn't do it, but Caden was all over it. He wanted to go again and Randy and I both yelled "NO" at the same time! Did I mention the line was long??
I don't know what this part had to do with anything, but there was one of these too!
Then, of course, we had to ride the firetruck!
By that time everyone was hungry and tired...and hot.
So, we went home!
