Fire Station Tour!









Monday, our mom's group went to tour the downtown Oklahoma City fire station. The kids had so much fun. They were a little stand offish, but then Isabelle started asking all kinds of questions. She was very curious about a lot of things. It was interesting to watch her. The kids got to see the inside of a fire truck, checkout their hats, the water hose (they actually got to hold it). The fire-fighters took us upstairs to see where they eat at, sleep at, play games at. Very interesting stuff. They even went down the poles a couple of times for the kids. They are one of the last stations to have the poles still. Can't forget all their gear. One of the fire-fighters put on all the gear, from head to toe, exactly like they would use in a real fire emergency. The fire-fighters were great with the kids. We had a fun time, thank you.

We then ventured down to Mesta Park for some play time and a picnic. I had know idea how beautiful this area is. It is a historical area, so everything has to be kept up to a certain level of excellence. It was a great park to visit for sure. The kids had play time, then lunch, and some strawberry cupcakes that I made for the kids. We had such a great day!
