Firehouse Field Trip

Last week Ella's Pre-K class went on a field trip to the fire station. Ella LOVES going on field trips and was so looking forward to this one. Last year Ella got to ride the YMCA bus to the fire station, but this year parents brought their children.

All the kids loved getting on the firetruck and sitting in the front seat. The firemen also showed the kids how they put on all their gear and stressed that if the kids are ever in a fire not to be afraid of the firemen. They may look scary, but they are there to help. 

They put up the ladder on the firetruck. It was so sunny out. Ella needed my sunglasses to look at it. 

Ella's favorite part was spraying the hose, of course!

While we were waiting for all the kids to spray the hose some of Ella's friends started a game of tag. Ella is SO shy, but I was surprised to see she joined right in. I wish Ella's class got to see the Ella we see. She is so reserved and quiet. I'm hoping she eventually grows out of this. She has come a long way since she started preschool though! 

We couldn't leave without a picture on the firetruck! :)
