Field Trip

Last week Summit got to be a part of preschool. We got invited to go on a couple field-trips. The first was to the fire station. If I was more organized I would have those picture on here, but I forgot my camera in the van so I don't have any. Either way Summit still had a lot of fun. The fireman talked all about tools vs toys. And when we call 911. He got all dressed up in his uniform. And they even got to spray the hose. The kids thought it was the coolest thing ever.

The second field trip was to the EMS helicopters and ambulances. We first talked about who rides in the helicopters and why. Each kids got to sit in the helicopter and try on the headset.


Each kid also got to sit on the tractor (they use that to pull the helicopter out of the hanger).


L-R Melanie, Fallon, Summit, Kendall, Thad & Susannah


Blake talked about the pilot and how he moves the blades.


While we were finishing up with checking out the helicopter they crew got a call. So we got to watch them prepare to take off and then finally take off. Each kid got his very own EMS helicopter. It was such a blast!!! I sure am going to miss all these sweet kids when we move in four days (no, I am not crying..............right now).
