Today at storytime, the Kaysville Fire Department came to visit the kids. After Miss Sarah read some books about fire trucks, the firemen talked with the kids about fire safety, exit plans, and not being afraid of them if there is a fire. They demonstrated how they put on all their fire fighting gear and reinforced that it is still the same nice fireman underneath all that protective gear. Lucy thought it was funny that the fireman’s name was Nate. It didn’t matter when he tried to give her a high five fully suited though. She wanted nothing to do with him. We’ll have to keep talking about not being afraid of firemen in gear.After the firemen were finished with their demonstrations, they invited the kids to come see their fire truck and ambulance outside. Too bad Lucy insisted on leaving her jacket in the van. It was cold, raining, and partially snowing outside. I tried to snap a quick picture, but all she wanted to do was go back inside. Her comment was, “Brie already knows what I look like!” 🤦🏼‍♀️The Snow was absolutely beautiful on the mountains. We missed the big snow at 4am that covered the ground. I’m sure we’ll see plenty more before this winter is over though.

In the evening, Uncle Eric made cookies with the kids, then everyone decided to jam to their favorite tunes. (Pretty much The Greatest Showman songs and Imagine Dragons) Lucy disappeared for a while, then when it was quiet for a bit, we could hear her belting out songs from in the basement. Sam snuck downstairs to find she had turned Natalie and William’s music stand into a microphone. He asked her if she would come show us, so then we were entertained for over a half an hour with her singing and dancing. She’s such a nut! As long as she doesn’t think you are recording her, she’ll just keep going and going!
