Fire Station

So another day this summer during play group we went to one of the local area Fire Stations to take a tour. Here is some pictures from that trip. After we toured the station we went to the park and had lunch there. I am a little sad that the pictures were a little blurry though. These were fun pictures.

Old Fashioned Fire Truck with Cute kids.
Fireman's Pole. Apparently they don't use this very often. But it is still cool.
One of the Firefighters got dressed into his fire fighting gear. In order to help the kids know not to be afraid if they are in a fire and see him coming.
They even got to sit in the truck.
At the end they all got a hat and a pencil for visiting. Aren't they cute!
As we left I noticed some firefighters doing some training. I think this looks fun. Even if I am a little afraid of heights.

What we found at the Pond

So this summer we were a part of a summer play group. Once a week a friend who was in charge chose things that she wanted to with her kids and invited everyone along. One week we went to feed ducks and walk around the pond. At the end of the walk we stopped for lunch.

Below are some of the fun things we saw on our walk.
I thought this was fun. It almost looks like snow. There was so much Cotton from the trees that was all over the ground.
We have been to this pond before and I had never known that the pond has a waterfall that feeds to a large stream.
