Today was Ethan’s class field trip to the local Rocklin Fire Department. It was his 5th field trip this year, but my first! We walked to the local fire station this morning, and the weather couldn’t have been more perfect. The kids learned fire safety 101 from firefighters Rob & his partner. They toured the fire house, which included their really modernized kitchen, living room, bedrooms, office, and workout room/gym. Ethan got to actually climb into a fire truck…me, I wasn’t so lucky. But my favorite part of the field trip was when Ethan “accidentally” raised his hand and volunteered to race Rob at suiting up in full uniform. Of course Ethan won, but what a race! Ethan pulled on his fire pants, suspenders, coat & hat and bragged to Rob that he was #1. Can you guess what Ethan’s response was when I asked him what he wanted to be when he grows up? What a fun filed trip and great learning experience for the kids.
