Fire Department Open House

The Wilmette Fire Department held their annual open house in October and it was such a fun morning!  The kids sat in the driver's seat of the big fire truck, learned all about smoke and fire safety, and went through a fun obstacle course that allowed them to wear fireman's gear, rescue a stuffed animal pet, and put out a pretend fire with the real fire hose.  They also got to bring a teddy bear for a check-up in the back of the ambulance.  They brought Tyler's new bear that Grammy had just made him for his 1st birthday.  He checked out just fine - he's in perfect health!
