Fire Station Outing
All dressed up to meet up with our home school group to visit a fire station on post! |
Inside the workout room. We also got to see where the firefighters cooked, slept, did laundry, and of course played video games! |
Margo listening intently to the fire chief! |
A fireman in all his gear. |
Getting down so that the kids could see his gear and not be frightened by the looks and sounds of it. |
Learning to crawl on the ground to stay safe when in smoke and fire! |
Getting to meet EMS and walk thru an ambulance. We got to see all the cool tools they have now including a chest compression machine so you don't have to manually do CPR! |
Getting up close with the back of the ambulance. |
Outside visiting the ladder truck! |
They showed all the hoses and levers of the firetruck and then extended the ladder out for us to see! |
Starting to bring up the ladder... |
half way up... |
All the way extended it can reach the top of anywhere on post except the tower at the airfield. |
My little firefighter recruit! :) |
Starbucks Date
Margo and I were an hour early to our home school group outing so we decided to take a detour to a Starbucks and park on post for a smoothie, apple juice, and some swing time!

Stopping at a Festival
When you see some bouncy houses and Christian rap music on the side of the road on a Saturday, you gotta stop and enjoy!
Just Tri Kids Eaglet Run!
Signing in Margo and her friend Gavin! |
Getting race numbers written on their arms and legs! |
I can hear "eye of the tiger" in the background of these two hardcore runners! :) |
Stretching! |
Wild Man Gavin and Cheetah Margo ready for their run! :) |
Warm-up pull-ups! |
More warm ups! |
So proud of my little athlete! :) |
Me and the kids! |
Ready at the start line! |
Off they go... |
All the way down the road to the top of the hill where they have a drink break and then run back down! |
Gavin rouding the corner to the finish line in under 9 minutes - he was the second fastest! |
Margo and Daddy turning the corner to the finish right behind Gavin! |
Gavin getting to the finish line! |
Crossing the finish line in a little over 9 minutes!!!!! |
Getting some refreshment! |
Candy and a ribbon - Margo came in third, or "first for the girls" as Gavin said! ;) |
