Rena's preschool class went to the fire station today and I got to go. It is the 3rd fieldtrip of the year, but the 1st one that I went on. Rena really wanted me to go on the last 2, but I wasn't able to so when I told her that I would go on this one she was sooooooo excited. We have been talking about it for a couple of weeks now and this morning she got up and got dressed in her fieldtrip shirt before she ever came downstairs. I think the only time that she let go of my hand (or stopped kissing it) during the whole trip was when I was taking pictures...........

This was one of the highlights of the trip for the kids -- watching the firefighters come down the poles. The other highlight was when an actual emergency call came in. We got to see the firefighters "in action" -- the alarm sounded, the firefighters rushed to get ready and the firetrucks pulled out with lights and sirens blaring. It ended up that the emergency was actually a false alarm so the firefighters were back in about 5 minutes, but the kids thought it was pretty exciting to see them working.
I had a fun morning spending some time just with Rena -- I hope I get to do it again soon!

Your field trip looks like fun. I am glad Rena was so excited. She looks so grown up and cute in her pictures.
