Last week I tagged along with Stella and her Pre-School class on their field trip to the West Jordan Fire Station. We had a rather large group because both of the Pre-K classes attended. I wish I had gone last year because everyone I talked to said it was so much better. This time around they were having a meeting with some of the firemen and so the kids had to be very quiet. Last year they got to get in the ambulance and fire truck. Some kids even got to try on the fire gear! Stella however, gets scared whenever she sees men in their get-up, particularly the masks. They even came home with cute fire hats and rulers.
This year it was at a different station and they didn't do any of that. The kids did get to sit in the driver's seat though. Stella posed like a good girl when she got up there. And Tristan was so funny because he was standing in front of all of the kids and every time the Fireman would put another kid on the seat he would look disappointed, but he still waited patiently. I finally had to ask him to let Tristan have a turn. Tristan finally got his chance to sit in the big seat and he loved it. He is such a truck and car boy! I knew he would love seeing the fire truck.
Since our field trip ended a bit early we faced the cold weather and played at the park for about 20 minutes. Then Stella, Tristan, and I went to lunch with Melissa and the boys. It was a fun morning, especially since we had been under quarantine for the past week! (Not really, but it felt that way sometimes)
