Fighting Fires

Helaman went to the fire station for playschool on Tuesday. He was so excited. When we got there, they were even lifting the ladder up on the ladder truck. ("That's not the fire engine, that's the ladder truck," I was told by the three-year-old firefighter expert in the back seat...)

The next day he was playing fireman with the hat they made at preschool and my vacuum hoses. He loves to get out all the different hoses and put them together to make a big long hose. Today he was using the hose hooked to the shopvac, and the shopvac was the fire hydrant.

He was really excited to take this picture so we could show Aunt Cari his hat. I told him I would put it on his web site so she could see, and then I showed him how that worked. He was thrilled with the idea of a bigger audience for his theatrics.

On an unrelated but crazy note, when I was touching this picture up in Photoshop, the thumbnail in the corner caught my eye. When the picture is a little blurry, look how much Helaman looks like a three-year-old Michael (or Billy - okay, they did look a little alike :) ).
