Over the weekend our town had a Public Works Open House! My neighbor brought me a flyer a few weeks ago advertising free hot dogs, a giant sand box, and a chance for the kids to look around in the equipment used by city employees. It looked like so much fun, and right up Miss O's alley!
It turned out to be a fun day. I loaded up Miss O, slathered on some sunblock, and remembered hats for both of us. She had so much fun getting to look around in the big trash trucks that she sees on our streets every week! I was excited for her to see the helicopter up close, because we hear it flying over our house all the time, and it sometimes scares her. I hope getting to see it up close and sit in it has eased her fears.
It was a hot day, and after almost 2 hours of climbing up in big trucks and honking horns, we called it a day. But not before stopping for ice cream on our way home!
I am so glad that the city had this event. I plan on taking Miss O and our new addition again next year!
