Just a quick little post to let you know that we're still alive. That is, if anyone still reads this.
Hello?

OK, well I guess I'm just talking to myself here, but I wanted to share these pictures of Jantzen's field trip to the.....
wait for it.....

Fire Station!
Yeah, like she hasn't already been there a million times. But it was fun for her to show her daddy off to her kindergarten class. And let's be honest here, I had a great time watching my hunky husband give the tour. I can never get tired of my man in uniform. Well, unless he has more than, like, two days off in a row and he drives me crazy around the house. But maybe if he wore his uniform on those days I wouldn't be so irritable toward him. We'll have to give that a try.
The fire station and the police station are in the same building, called the Hermiston Safety Center (or something like that). So after their tour of the fire station the kids went next door for a tour of the police station. Chris' favorite prank to pull on the police is to tell all of the little kids to ask the police where they keep all of their donuts. What a riot! The kids head into the police station all excited thinking that maybe they're getting donuts, then the cops have to be the "bad guys" and tell them that there aren't any. You 'd think that they would plan ahead and just buy a bunch of donuts to give to the kids so the kids don't hate them. Now I know why people don't like cops very much. It all starts in kindergarten when they don't give donuts to the kids!
Anyways, at the fire station they got the royal treatment since it was Jantzen's class. Everyone got a chance to squirt water at the police cars parked behind the fire station.
heehee
And Chris showed them how he likes to hide in the ambulance when he should be working. "These cots are really pretty comfortable!" He tells the kids. Actually, he gave a very fun and interesting tour of the ambulance, even telling them details about cancer, big needles and drilling things into your bones.
Hopefully there weren't any nightmares that night.
