We have a brand new fire station that opened and the invitation went out to all of the neighborhood to come for fun, food and simply to tour the station. Of course, it being only 10 minutes away (walking distance) we decided to take our bundles. To say they loved it, would simply be a…

4th of July, celebration, fireworks, family, friends and in the midst of it all, sorrow and heart that aches for the ones that are not in a situation to celebrate.
