When we got to the station, the big ladder truck was out on a call, so we started with snack and storytime. Luckily it was just out on a false alarm from dust caused by construction workers at a dorm, and returned pretty soon after we started snack.
We went upstairs and saw the kitchen and tv room, exercise room and where they sleep. We also got to look into the room where the brass pole is.
Then we headed down to the garage. A fireman put on his fire gear, and the kids got to go give him a high five. They talked about crawling to get out of the house, and if they saw and heard the firefighters coming they were to yell out where they were and go to them. We've always taught the kids that they are go give the firefighters a hug when they find them.
The highlight for Ammon was getting to walk through one of the firetrucks. He thought it was really neat inside of it.
Ammon was excited to get a friehat from the firefighters, and then to check out some books at the library.
