National Night Out

Our neighborhood had a National Night Out get together last night. The kids both had blast. We had a visit from the local firefighters. They brought 2 of their larger trucks, including their ladder truck. Andrew had fun pretending to drive the ladder truck, and Jenna did a great job of trying to climb up on the truck, and inspecting anything she could reach. The firemen seemed to take a liking to her, and her determination to be one of the big kids. Target provided goodie bags for the kids, which was nice. Jenna found the sidewalk chalk right away, and even tho we've never had her play with it at home, so started 'drawing' on the street right away ( I was just happy she didn't try to eat it). I don't know if Andrew even looked in his bag because he was too busy riding his bike,playing football, and trying to throw a frisbee. Jenna had everyone laughing with her insistence on walking everywhere (no stroller for her!).

We leave Friday to visit Camille, Theo & Callie. We're excited to go see them again, I can't wait to see how big Callie has gotten, and their 'new' house. We just hope that Jenna does ok in car. Hopefully she'll do better now that she's turned around, otherwise it could be a very long 5+ hours in the car!
