Maple Valley Days Part 2

This weekend celebrates Maple Valley Days with a parade and various activities down at the lake. We walked down with our buddies, Dusti and Liam. The biggest hits for the kids was the slide and the emergency vehicles. Eli especially enjoyed "driving" the firetruck. He was still talking about it today and his eyes and voice were screaming with excitement.

This was the highlight of Eli's afternoon, driving the firetruck.

Maybe he has a future in firefighting, who knows!

He can do whatever his heart desires

Eli couldn't get enough of the firetruck. He had fun showing Daddy all of the equipment in the truck.

Hopefully this will be his only encounter of "riding" in an ambulance. Although, he looks like he sort of fits in with an ambulance ride...

Dusti, Liam, Eli and I went down the slide together.

At this point we were all laughing hysterically. It was great!

Eli and Daddy just got off the slide. Look at the excitement on his face. He couldn't wait to go down again.

For the first time EVER, Eli enjoyed the swings! His typical response includes screaming and crying, on this day he asked to swing and enjoyed every minute of it. We couldn't pass up taking lots of pictures. Who knows if it will happen again or not.

Dusti and Liam having fun. Aren't they cute?!?
