Fire House Field Trip


Yesterday we went on a field trip with a group of home schoolers. Although Z-man is not in school, he was welcomed to join in on the fun. I think he enjoyed it more than X-Factor. I didn't get to see much of the presentations because I was too busy chasing Z-man...the best way I found to keep him out of trouble was to let him stand on trucks and get his picture taken. That's why most of the pictures are of him.


The X-Factor loved the demonstrations in the "safety house." She asked and answered a lot of questions and was the first kid to shout out 911 when the Srg. asked what number should be dialed in the case of a fire.





Z-man and the Sargent who was impressed by the "little tank"













Z-man looks distraught, but he was actually yelling WOW!

X-Factor enjoyed checking out the inside of the ladder truck.

Oh how neat! I loved these pictures. I didn't know you homeschooled...of if I did I forgot! I homeschooled all 5 of my kids. They are all grown now and doing very well! Kudos to you!

I LOVE the pictures of Z-Man on the firetruck...he looks like he's in charge! All the pictures are adorable and what a great way for the kids to learn about fire safety! I'm sure the X-Factor was very quick to answer all of their questions!
