Clinton's New Fire Station

Okay...so this is a little late but I wanted to show some picture of when we went to see the new fire station. Clinton just built a brand new fire station and got a brand new ladder truck. So with some other people in our neighborhood Carson and I went to check it out while the girls were in school.

One of the firefighters got in their gear to show the kids that firefighters may look a little scary when they come to a fire but they're really not scary and if they are in a house that's on fire they should not hide from them but go to them or have the firefighter come to them by yelling. So they got to give her a high five and shake her hand.

Then they showed us the fire truck. The ladder that they have goes 150 feet in the air and one of them climbed it. It was REALLY high!

There was a bell on the front of the truck and a fireman let Carson push the button to ring the bell. He loved that! We had a ton of fun but then when it was over all Carson wanted to do was go to the store and get a treat. That's his favorite thing to do.

The Amazing Houdini!

So last Sunday, the 24th, Carson was being too much of a little boy and had to be sent to time out (he wouldn't sit at the dinner table with the family for family dinner). For time out they have to sit in the laundry room. So he was in there for a couple of minutes and it got REALLY quiet. I went to check on him and this is what I found.

He was asleep! Can you even imagine trying to fold yourself up in that? Then when we woke him up he was crying because I think his feet were asleep. Needless to say we got him changed and put him in bed for the night. What a crazy kid!
