Fire Department

 Today we went on an outing to the Caldwell fire station. This is fireman Nick showing us the station and the fire trucks. We learned the difference between the ladder and fire trucks, a little about fire safety, and got to watch the fireman respond to a call.

 Elena's latest phase is to cling to my arm and cry when we are in a group. She decided she didn't want to go inside the truck or check out the nozzle and hose. This is why she is missing from the group shot.

 This is the best she could do.

The fisherman is having a blast in Alaska. I sent him this picture of both kids melting down when I got home from work last night. He decided he's totally envious of me.
