Cool!

Tuesday last week, Jaden and I were making a Starbucks run and this is what we saw from the drive-thru.

I asked the girl at the drive thru window if she knew what was going on and she said that they were having a training exercise.  O.K. Cool.  So of course I told Jaden we'd drive by for a closer look.  One of the firemen saw us sitting there staring and pointing so he came over and said we could take a closer look.  Sweet!

Jaden thought he was pretty cool...getting to sit in the helicopter.  But he was put out with the guy for not letting him fly.  Jaden kept saying, "Go for ride", and pointing at the pilot's seat.


Once he realized that he wasn't going to get to fly the helicopter, he ran over to the fire truck for a closer look.  They were nice enough to put him up in the driver's seat but then Jaden put on his seat belt and asked for the keys!  Too funny!  The fireman explained that you don't need keys to start the engine....hmmm.  So Jaden asked him to shut the door.  The fireman laughed and closed the door for him and Jaden laughed and started acting like he was steering the engine and wanted to blast the horn.   Um, not going to happen.  =D

So excited!
This was the best trip to Starbucks that we've ever had!
