We've been sick here, and Todd has been super busy this weekend with our church's missions conference, but today fevers were gone and Todd was home and so we decided to get out for a couple of hours. On kind of a whim we decided to swing by the fire station just 2 minutes from our house and ask if we could look around (we were inspired by "Curious George and the Firefighters"). We received an extremely warm welcome and we all four had a great time! Firemen Eric and Ian gave us a grand tour of the station, let Eleanor sit in the the driver's seat of the firetruck and turn on the lights, and suited up in their gear for us to see. It was so, so fun. As much as Eleanor liked the fire engines, at the end of the day her favorite thing was climbing onto all 9 of the armchairs in the station's TV room! That ranked pretty high for Will, too.
