Fun at the Fire Station!

Our local fire station had an open house and we knew Eli would LOVE it! He got to climb through the fire trucks, but had to be reminded not to push any buttons!



In the ambulance, they gave him the green light to touch everything! I hope this is the closest we get to being in an ambulance with our accident-prone little guy!



Eli held on tight to Daddy while we watched the firemen cut apart a car with the jaws of life. I had never seen it before and it was pretty amazing how fast they can get into a car. In about ten minutes, the entire top of the car was removed.



We learned that if there is a fire, you should crawl and stay low to avoid smoke, that we will meet in Gino's yard after we get out of the house, and that you NEVER run away and hide from a fireman in an emergency. Eli is also very good at stop, drop, and roll.

It was such a cool event that Eli didn't want to leave. I have never seen him that upset to leave before. Hopefully, this trend won't continue!
