So, for his 5th birthday this past Saturday, we took Conner to our local fire station so he could get a first-hand view.
The group included Conner (of course); his 2 sisters, Kaleigh and Kyndal; his cousins, Randy, Tanner and Carson; his mom; his dad; his Aunt Ally; his Mimi and his Paw Paw.
The two local firemen who led us around on Saturday were absolutely awesome!
First they showed us one of their trucks, which the kids found pretty amazing!
It's not often we find our grandkids so quiet, but they were mesmerized by the firemen, the trucks, the various equipment, and all the gear the firemen wear to a fire.
They even let the kids put on their helmets, sit in the driver's seat of the firetruck, turn on the siren and pull the horn (which was extremely LOUD and scared the hell out of both of our young grandbabies)!
Our thanks to the Denham Springs firemen for their help in making Conner's 5th birthday one he'll remember for years to come - whether or not he EVER becomes a fireman himself !!
Until next time.....
Kevin, you are an awesome PawPaw. I am so proud of Karen and You for your hand in creating a loving, beautiful branch of the family tree. God bless you, we do miss being with you all on a daily basis.
