Friday night Nate volunteered to go to Moorhead, MN to help with the Red River Flooding. He and a few other Mayer Fire Department firefighters drove the 3 hours. They ended up being staged at the Moorhead High School for the night and went and helped a few homeowners in the morning. They watched pumps while the homeowners got some much needed sleep.
We are praying for all the families effected in the Red River Valley. Here are a few pictures of some flooded streets in Moorhead.
Fireman's Banquet
Saturday morning while Nate was on his way back from Moorhead. I met Nate's parents in Elk River. Kaitlyn was spending the night in Mora for her Auntie's Surprise Party while Nate and I went to the Fireman's Banquet.
Nate rec'd his new helmet for completing both the Fire Fighter I and II. All the wives of the new Firefighters got to place their new helmets on their husbands... and than do the Chicken Dance in front of everyone. I am sorry to say that I don't possess any pictures for this part of the night.
Here are a few pictures of Kaitlyn trying on Daddy's new helmet. At first she was not so sure about it, but than she didn't want to stop wearing it!
Here is Kaitlyn trying to escape from having the helmet on! It was kind of heavy.
How about I just hold it Daddy? It's not that bad!
