Happy Independence Day!

Happy 4th of July!

So, what do you do with a 2 year old who is too young for the local fair (I mean, way too young to deal with the madness there!) and who is in bed long before the fire works? If you are me, you find the next best thing, Pancake Breakfast at the local fire house!

Yep, we spent some time this morning enjoying pancakes, eggs and ham at our local fire house with about 100 (at that time) of our neighbors and got to, you guessed it, explore the ambulance, the fire engine and the brush truck! So, you ask, did Miss C enjoy the adventure? You bet! At first she refused to go inside until we hopped in the fire engine but because no one was outside at the engine at that time, I had to talk her into going in and asking after breakfast if we could visit the truck. Once we mentioned wanting to explore, the fire fighters jumped into action and kept a whole lot of kids very happily entertained by letting them climb in and out of all of the different vehicles.

Below is one of the pictures from our adventure, the rest are here.


Oh, for all of my friends and family who have yet to get a blogger account, I have made it possible to make comments without a logon so ... :)

She looks soooo much like you! I can't wait to finally meet her in person. BTW, Megan and I sent her two new books today. Hope she enjoys them!

She is getting to be such a big girl. Any chance you can come out for a visit??? Will let you know when the mail arrives (she already asks where her mail is!)

Not going anywhere anytime soon...sorry. I hope she doesn't already have these books, but if she does, just send them back and I will get her a couple others.

Thanks for making the comments section open to all. We have been enjoying the blog all along but were unable to share our thoughts. She is a delightful little girl and we have enjoyed watching and reading about her growing up.
Jer, Pen, Amanda and Michaela
