Happy Birthday Mason

Mason's birthday was on a Sunday so we had ice cream and opened presents that day. Then on Monday was the kid party that involved a trip to the fire station.

Here is the handsome 4 year old.

These three are great friends.

They were so excited to sing to Mason and eat his cake.

Future Firefighter
This fireman gave the kids such a cute tour. He really enjoyed sharing his job with them. The kids loved seeing all the trucks and hoses.

This was what the fireman was the most excited to share with us. This is a brand new million dollar station with everything a fireman could want-even a pole to slide down!

He was showing us the upstairs living quarters and Zach escaped from me and headed down the hall. I didn't think much of it and headed after him. The fireman stopped midsentence and pushed past some kids to sprint down the hall after Zach. What I didn't know was that the upstairs opening to this pole is not locked, I didn't even know that it was around the corner. Luckily the fireman did and knew he needed to get there quick. Zach had triggered the gate, which automatically opens the floor around the pole. He was standing at the edge of an opening to the next floor. He fireman quickly picked him up and hearded us away from the pole. He said they had to beg to get the pole installed and that the fire chief threatened that the first broken leg and the pole is out. So the fireman was concerned about both the safety of my baby and keeping his pole!
