Fire Rescue East & A Stop At The Beach

We checked Banan out of school early Friday and the four of us headed to the Fire Rescue East Trade Show in Daytona – with a stop at IHOP along the way.

A lot of the vendors typically have candy, pens and other goodies to giveaway to attendees and this year was no exception.  Banan thought it was Halloween, lol.  Candy, toys, pens, pencils, cups, etc… plus brochures full of awesome fire trucks!

Calen loved getting out of the stroller and checking out things that interested him – which would be wheels, of course.  Fire trucks have very large wheels - all the better for Calen.  It cracks us up just how obsessed with wheels he is!

We headed out along the beach for the drive home.  The wind was whipping pretty good right on the beach, but it was otherwise a nice day, so we decided to stop for a few and let the boys run & play.

I’m ashamed to admit that this was Calen’s first beach vist.

He’s 14 months old – almost 15 months.  And we live in Florida.

Instead of beach days last summer, we did our water play at resorts while visiting Orlando. It was fun, even with him being so little then, but his first beach day was long overdue.

OK, so it wasn’t really a beach day, but still.

Banan ran ran kinda wild, being silly, and kept getting closer to the water.  In the end, his shoes and socks were soaked and his pants weren’t much drier.

Calen didn’t run around persay… he just made a beeline straight for the water every. single. time. he was put down on his own two feet. The water was simply too good to resist.

Overall, it was a fun family day!

Thank you for visiting the original Shake The Salt!!
