The Fire Hall

Today we went to see Uncle Mike at the fire hall! He got transferred recently to the Hall right near our house! We thought it would be super cool to go visit him and see what being a fire fighter is all about.  It was a lot of fun and he did an awesome job touring us around. Camilla even scored a coloring book with stickers out of it!! Thought I would share some pics with you all!

 Daddy and his girl!

Arland tagged along with us! It was super fun to have him!
 
Cami and her Uncle Mike
The helmet actually says "Fire Fighter Hudkins" on it, but I don't know if you can see it very well in the picture. We tried to get Camilla to wear it but she kept ducking out... Pretty funny
 
Uncle Mike: "It's SOO awesome!...."
Sitting in the fire truck! Uncle Mike is captivating us all with exciting stories about driving to fires!
 
Uncle Mike: The real deal
Uncle Arland: The slim-down version (wearing Murph's uniform might I add)..
We got to see all of the fire fighters uniforms and even tried one on!! Pretty impressive!
 
We went through to the work-out room and the kitchen.  Camilla even got to drink some water from their big glasses.  Those fire fighters can cook! We ended our tour back with the trucks and snapped a pic of Cami and her Uncle Mike.  Her face is so proud looking.  What a fabulous afternoon!

Other than that we are doing well. We all had a bit of a flu this week and I wasn't able to eat for a while.  I was worried about the baby, but it's still kicking like crazy! It likes to be active around 11pm just like Cami Jean was.  We are all doing well and looking very forward to Christmas Holidays!

Lots of Love,

That's really cool guys! Maybe we'll do the same thing next time we're in Edmonton. Roxanne is going to be taken into a burning building with the firefighters here for a training exercise. Maybe they will use her for a rescue person?

I think that it is cool to have a fireman in the family. I can't wait to visit Mike's new fire hall.-Garth
