Kindergarten Field Trip to the Fire Station

On June 4th I was able to go on the twins' last field trip with them.  Nathan was at preschool so I was able to just take Lydia.  The class walked the quarter mile to the fire station.  They separated the class into boys and girls and then gave them the tour.

First they looked around at all the compartments on the fire engine.  The girls were pretty bored by this.  They were all more interested in this little cutie and I can't blame them.

Next, one of the firemen put on all his gear so the kids could see what he looked like with it all on.  

Isn't this typical?... a fireman surrounded by girls.  

Morgan was a little nervous and stayed back.

 They got to take turns using the fire hose, which is always a hit with kids.

Then they held onto a hose and took a little tour of the living quarters.  It's a good thing they got to be silly and all hang on to this hose and be led around because honestly, it was a pretty boring tour.

 They got their snacks and ate on the grass outside. Lydia loved tagging along and acting like the big kids.  She got a snack like all the students and sat on the lawn with them.  It was pretty cute.

After snack we walked back to school.  It was a very quick field trip, but it was nice to be able to go with them and spend a little time with them with their class and teacher, especially since it was the 2nd to last day of school.
