Drew's birthday party was Saturday and it was a flaming good time! We had a fire truck theme complete with fire truck invitations, a fire truck cake, fire truck pinata and even real fire fighters with their truck! Fourteen of Drew's friends plus their parents attended in addition to the Watson's, both Grandma's and Aunt Mary. Drew was so excited to see the fire truck in his front yard and was devastated when it drove off (sirens blaring of course!). The Cary Fire Department went above and beyond any of our expectation. They came in with hats and pencils for all the kids and then gave a safety presentation. Fire fighter Chuck got dressed in his protective gear in order to show the kids that a fire fighter is not a monster if they see one. It was a great message and very entertaining. They even let the kids try on the clothes, mask, hat, shoes, and oxygen back pack. It was pretty neat! They were amazing and we are so appreciative for their time! Also, thanks to Mom for all the help with cooking and to her and Judy for helping with clean up!

Drew was so excited that the fire truck was there!
He made himself at home in the seat and didn't get out until the truck had to leave.
