So....I've changed the name of my blog, so it's now our family blog. I never did post much as a rookie firefighter, and since I'm no longer a rookie I thought it was time for a change. So be looking forward to the new blog and posts!!

Once again I've been slacking on this...
Things have been hectic at best! Been fighting a little bit of fire and training like no body else!
I'll be going to Idaho in about a month spending two whole weeks with my family and friends!
I'll try to get better about posting on here...just not sure who actually reads this, if anybody!

3 Alarm Fire
This morning we had a 3 alarm fire. Engine 4 and Engine 5 were first in. This was by far the biggest fire I've had so far.

Night of Dumpster Fires
