Cooper's 3rd Birthday Party ~ Part II

After Cooper's party at home, we took a field trip to the local fire station. They were nice enough to give us a tour and let the kids climb all over the fire engines. The kids were even allowed to spray the water hoses!!

Two silly girls
Cooper couldn't get enough of the trucks
Showing off his muscles

Trying to push the truck so it would move
He rested his head on the fire truck and said, "I just love fire trucks!"
Fireman Michael showed the kids all of the gear that was on each truck
Greg was the only one who would try on the hat
Next, the kids were allowed to go outside and spray real fire hoses!
Cooper was so proud of himself!
He had a blast
Keira took her turn
"Whoa!"

Cooper had to have another turn
Reagan wanted to spray the hose again too

Once we were back home, Cooper played with his fire trucks again ~ Almost as good as the real thing!
