We headed downtown for a festival... and I could've sworn I read something about people getting citizenship today, but we didn't see any of that. We did, however, see a ladder truck. The little guy got to talk to two (very kind and patient) firefighters.
 |
This firefighter was explaining why the ladder goes so high in the air.
He managed to explain it without being terrifying,
which is pretty impressive! |
It took a few false starts, but he ended up even sitting in the fire truck.
 |
This poor guy's job was to pick up a gazillion kids, put them in the
truck, keep them from falling out while their parents took pictures,
and then get each kid back down safely. Whew! |
 |
| He was SO proud of himself! |
Then the boys had some ice cream and we all went home. The baby spent her evening chewing on one of the little dude's worker-men.

| Construction workers are the breakfast of champions. |
Good thing Grandma wasn't there or she would have asked the firefighter for help, too. :-)
