Visit to the Gilbert Fire Station

Today Tyler and I visited the Gilbert Fire Department with our mom's group. We got a tour of the facilities and saw how the firefighters eat, sleep and spend their free time. We even saw how they slide down the pole or the slide when it is time to go to a fire. The best part though were the big fire trucks. Tyler got to climb up in the trucks and even practice a little driving. That was his favorite part, in fact, he didn't want to leave the truck. We also watched the fireman put on all his gear and take photos with the kids. Tyler didn't have his photo taken because he didn't want to get that close to the guy in his gear. After the tour we headed over to a nearby mall for a little play time and some lunch. A very busy morning which lead to a long nap.
