Her Baby Princess Birthday Cake.

March 2nd was McKayLeigh's birthday. It seemed to last all week. We opened her presents on her Birthday. We did her cake the day after. The next day we went to the firestation and had more cupcakes with them. It's been fun. I want to thank (and KayLeigh wants to thank) everyone for the gifts and thoughts they sent her. With her Birthday money, she bought a Dora the Explorer DVD. For some odd reason, we didn't own any of those DVDs. Now, it's one of her favorites. Since she has seen it so much in such a short amount of time, she is really picking up on things. I overheard her the other day counting in Spanish. There's a few other words she and Zack say as they are playing, too. What fun!! Thanks again!

Fire Station Field Trip

Yesterday the playgroup in our ward met at our local Fire Station and the Firemen took us around their station. The kids had so much fun. The kids were able to interact with Fireman Darryl in all his gear so they would get used to seeing that and not be afraid if they ever saw a fireman in all his gear. They were very friendly and nice. They took the kids outside and let them look at the trucks. Our local station is very old and they are desperately waiting for the new one. They broke ground for it in September 2007 and it seems like it won't even be ready til the end of this year. Hopefully the workers will get moving on it. It will be so nice. One thing interesting that we learned is that the Firestations no longer have Fire Poles. They actually caused too many accidents and they don't put them in any more. They try, as much as possible, to have the Firestations on one level.
