A Journey Worth Remembering: Fire Museum

I don't know how long it's been since we did something fun as a family- I know we haven't gone anywhere since moving in the house 6 months ago. I seriously think it's been over a year! Anyways, with arbitration over and the holidays over but still no closure we had to do something inexpensive but still fun for the kids. They had a day off of school so we went to the Fire Museum.

Before we left Josh had to have his nap. I caught a few pictures of him playing with his firetruck.

"Whooowoooo! Whooowoo!"

Is it just me or does his face say, "Really Mom? Another picture? Can't I just play with my firetruck?"

And so I suppose this was the result- an abandoned fireman and his firetruck. Poor fireman!

The Fire Museum is really small and I suppose it doesn't help that one side was closed. At least the kids area was open! We spent most of our time there anyway!

I took this picture of Avery in front of this old firetruck. I can't remember what year it was.

This was their oldest firetruck 1890 I think. The year is printed on the back but my beautiful daughter was standing in front of it.

This was part of the upstairs. It was a firehouse back in the day and this was the locker room/ bathroom.

At the kids area, there was a fire pole that the kids loved to take turns sliding down.

Fireman Josh

Yup, I even took a slide down the pole.

Fireman Josh was in control of the driver's seat. He let us all know that was his seat and he didn't want to share.

Firefighter Avery

I love how she kicks her feet out and around the pole.

Down the slide and off for the truck!

Firefighter Emily needed a little help getting on her mask.

This wonderful Fireman needs to get back to the station. It's been too long with this STUPID decision of Chief Flanagan. YES I said Stupid!!! After his testimony in arbitration, that's all I can say. I suppose I can add that I've lost all respect for the man.
