field trip fun~

today was a fun day for cullan. the fire department came to cullan's preschool. they got to look at the truck, check out all the tools, and just be awed in general!fireman charlie explained all about the truck.there were all kinds of tools..some really big hoses....interesting things they use to save lives..best of all.. .the cool sirens!well cool but loud..all the kids loved it but had their hands over their ears.
cullan wanted his picture by the cool fire truck.here is another very nice fireman putting on all his gear.they made a point of putting all their gear on in front of the kids..they did a great job of explaining to the kids that they should not be scared of them. especially if they come in their house at night. i guess kids often hide from fire men because they look scary. so these nice guys did a wonderful job of making sure the kids were not scared and that they understood that if they were in their homes, they were there to help. cullan even talked about when the firemen came to grandma and grandpas house in the middle of the night. i was really surprised he remembered!
