Let's Pretend...

This weekend I walked into the family room to find Caden in  his fireman uniform.  He decided that we were going to have a fire drill.  He ordered us out of the house while he stayed behind to check the house to make sure it was safe. He told us to exit the house and meet at the end of the driveway!  He must've practiced firedrills at preschool, because we have never practiced them before.  Apparently all was safe because he met us out in the driveway (we were not all the way to the end and we got spoken to about it).  He then offered to chop down some trees in the yard.  We have a few we'd like to get rid of, so this was very helpful.

Seriously how fun must these tunnels be for little kids?  I am sure they seem miles long to them.


And here is a magic trick for you!!  Looks like an ordinary birdbath right??... Oh but wait....


Ta-da!!!  It's a reflection of a tree.  Okay.. maybe not so magic, but I thought it was at least kinda neat right?!

Good for Caden bringing up the fire drill. Every household should have a plan especially with kids. He plays the role so well costume and all!

Do you have the book firefighter Ted? He would like it - very funny. Doctor Ted is a riot too.

Oh, that story with Caden ordering you out to the end of the driveway made me a laugh. I wish I had seen that and taken a picture from my house. :)

Cool tricks with the reflection!
