RVFD Academy Graduation

Kyle finished his Rainbow Valley Fire Department Fire Academy on Thursday after 13 long weeks. We are so proud of him! They had a graduation ceremony to recognize them and their accomplishments. They also had a award for the Outstanding Recruit. It was voted on by the other recruits...and Kyle received that award. So proud of him. It was a fun night. Way to go honey! By the way, you are one HOT FIREMAN!

The recruits waiting outside for their grand entrance!

Gavin and Parker both fell asleep on the drive up. Gavin stayed asleep until we finally woke him up! They are so sweet when they sleep.
RVFD Academy 09-01!
Receiving their new badge, and new shirt.
Receiving his Outstanding Recruit Award.
So military; walking in a straight line...left, right, left. So professional.
Kyle and his boys. One hot fireman, I have to say!
Showing Gavin the trucks. Gavin was so excited to go to the fire department and see the "fire trucks and Daddy's friends."
The boys were a little distracted.
Good job Gav! Drive that truck. He had to sit and explore every fire engine...all 5!

Nice face Parker.

They are so cute! I  love how Gavin always wants to hold Parker's hand.

Fireman Gavin!

Wow - this is so exciting! Tom's son is a firefighter (he says he has the best job - he gets to drive a firetruck!). He loves it! What a great job - congrats! Love, Tom and Cheryl States

And so it begins. Soon every fire truck you pass will have "daddy's friends" in it. Frank is in love with fire ANYTHING. He yells ambulance or fire truck EVERY time we see one in the car. Congratulations Kyle! One step closer to your goal. Whitney you are the bomb for supporting him in such a big career change.
