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.

Fireworks

Last night the owners of the stands in Lynden got together at Bender Fields to talk about fireworks safety and put on a display of the fireworks that are legal in the city limits.

The boys hanging out waiting for the fireworks to start.
Gracie got filthy playing in the dirt.
Krista and Gracie
Carson didn't want to smile.
Setting up the display.


Krista and Gracie waiting for the next one to go off.
Watching one that went way up!
Too Loud! Check out the dirty face! :)
Erin (a friend's daughter) hiding behind her dad.
Pretty!

The finale!
