24th of July in Enterprise!!

The 24th of July was fun up here! We had lots of activities going on. Its amazing how small towns have so much fun on the special holidays! Here are a few pictures of what went on that day...

First of all, Enterprise Fire and Ambulance was in the parade, just like they are every year! I got to ride with Ty in the Rescue 51. We threw Popsicle out to all the of the kids waiting for the fire trucks. There were a few people that would grab their garden hoses and spray the guys on the fire trucks!! It was great to watch!! Our friend Jared got soaked with one, he jumped off the engine and ran after the kid.. we all died laughing! I love the old fire engines that they have up here, they are cool. Reminds me of the movies that you see with the older ones on it..

After the parade, the fire department sets up the "city pool" at the park. It is a very large tarp over stacks of old tires. They fill it up with water and wait for the activities to start. They have all the kids go into the pool in age groups and they look for the coins that they throw into the pool. It is really neat for the kids and they all seemed to like it!! When the kids jump in there are 4 firemen with fire hoses on the corners of the pool and they spray them... its really funny to watch cuz it makes it harder for the kids to get the coins... lol!!
