Fire, Fire, Fire!

A few weeks ago Brad started the Fire Academy. So far he has really enjoyed it, but holy smokes, it is rugged. It is a lot like boot camp. They have to run miles, do "up-downs", carry classmates, and jump out of windows while wearing all their gear. He has been doing about 80 hours a week between working 2 jobs and attending the fire academy. The picture below is just after his first day of class when he got all of his gear. He doesn't look excited in the picture, but he was. The timing of all of this couldn't be more perfect for Caden since he is obsessed with fire trucks. We all can't wait until the end of December when he will be done and hopefully certified.
