Fire Station Open House

This afternoon, the Norfolk Fire Department had an open house.  Naturally we headed down to the fire station to check it out.

The fire trucks were open for kids to climb in and through.

They could even sit in the old Model A fire truck!

If you know Julia, you know she asked if she could climb to the top of the fire truck's ladder...uh, no.  Sorry!

Even though Julia can't reach the gas and brake pedals, she tried to honk the horn.

Before Evelyn knew what was happening, I had her suited up in a fireman's coat and hat, holding a firehose.  She was a good sport and even smiled for a picture.

Later in the day, we went for a ride in the old fire truck.  Our favorite part of the ride was listening to the old-fashioned siren - it made us laugh!
