Saturday, May 6, marked the grand culmination in our-several-month-long relationship with the Durham Fire Department, as they burned down the old house in our backyard for practice. Practice for them. Old, moldy house permanently gone for us. For months prior to the big day, we'd catch glimpses of fire trucks heading down our driveway to prepare the scene. Talk about a four year old's dream. Sunday morning Will woke up and said, "I want to do that again!" Unfortunately, buddy, that's not a normal Saturday activity. It was truly an unforgettable day.

| The whole thing took about 5 hours to burn. We had lots of friends and bystanders. |

Over the months of preparation, we befriended two firefighters in particular,
Will and Tyler (or they befriended us). One afternoon, we heard the doorbell
and found this surprise at the door for Will. So sweet. |
