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.

NWWFair

I worked in the First Aid booth a lot at the Fair this year. We went to the Demolition Derby as a family, Roy and I had a date night at the Fair Tuesday night, and we took the kids Saturday to see the animals and Roy and Carson had tickets to see the Monster Truck show. For some reason I didn't take very many pictures. But I did get a picture of the kids on the hay for Roy's Mom, she likes us to do this as a tradition. My battery was dying and the kids were not wanting to sit still, so these are the best I was able to get!


Here they were smiling, but they were looking up at daddy.
