Where's the Fire?

Carter thinks he is pretty funny, little does he know that this move was first done by his Uncle Kevin about 20 years ago!
Carter got his first "junior fire dept." badge today on our trip to the Fire station. I am so mad that I forgot my camera rushing out the door, because he was loving every second of it. Our ward once a month has a field trip day where we go to different places around town. This was the first one, getting a tour of the fire house. First thing of course he noticed the gumball machine on the way in so he was begging me the whole time to get one. He got a blue one if you couldn't tell my the blue stains on his mouth! Then they watched an Elmo video about fire safety, got to hear what a fire alarm sounds like, saw a fireman in his full gear (Carter was petrified), heard a dispatch on their radios, and got to actually get into the fire truck itself! Carter was a little timid during the class, but not when he was told he could go on the truck! He pushed his way to the front as fast as he could with a huge smile on his face. It was a fun little outing! p.s. the scratch on his face is from an incident with him running with his shopping cart in the kitchen. I am not sure what exactly happened I just heard a crash and he came running to me with blood on his face! Boys...

What a great idea! Why doesn't our ward think of stuff like that?!
