Saturday, October 11 was the annual Fairmount Township Fire Station Open House. We've been the past couple of years, but this year we brought along some neighborhood friends at the last minute. All of the kids were excited and I think having friends to play with made it that much more fun.
We got there a few minutes after it started, and opted to let the kids ride in the fire truck right away, before the line got too long.
Then the boys headed in to ride the mini fire truck and shoot out the "house fire."
The big highlight were the two large bounce houses set up outside. All 4 kids played in them for a really long time!
Eventually Joseph and Luke decided they wanted to wait for a balloon animal. Maddie and Dane weren't about to wait in a long line patiently, so they kept playing until it was almost their turn.
We took a few more rides in the fire truck so each kid could get a chance to ride up front once. I love that they actually take the kids out for rides- lots of fire stations will let the kids play around inside, but this is the only place that lets them ride.
The littles were definitely starting to wear out, and we had to get them home before naps. It was a struggle keeping them awake all the way back, but we managed. They all had so much fun and are asking when they can go back for more!
