Fireman's Prayer

When I am called to duty, God,
Whenever flames may rage;
Give me strength to save some life,
Whatever be its age.

Help me embrace a little child
Before it is too late
Or save an older person
From the horror of that fate.

Enable me to be alert
And hear the weakest shout,
And quickly and efficiently
To put the fire out.

I want to fill my calling
And to give the best in me
To guard my every neighbor
And protect his property.

And if, according to my fate,
I am to lose my life,
Please bless with your protecting
My children and my wife.

Berthusen Park

Sunday evening we joined Roy's family at Berthusen Park for games and snacks. We had a good time.

The men started out playing horse shoes.





Gracie and Krista enjoying popcorn.



The guys playing frisbee. I tried getting some actions pictures, but my camera was a bit slow. Here's a few of what I was able to catch.




Later we all played a few games of volleyball.



Krista posing with the "trophy". She pointed out that she was holding a Coca Cola volleyball and a can of Pepsi.


Gracie was chasing the birds and offering them her popcorn.
She said "Birdies, I got some po'corn for you!"
