They are heros. And last tuesday evening, when a tree crash caused our entire neighborhood’s power to go out, they performed more than one heroic act of protecting a live wire. They left a huge imprint on one little boy’s world. Which made the 4 hours without power bearable. These men could have simply done the task their chief had assigned, but instead they took the time to show Liam what it takes to be a fireman. They let him drive the truck, sound the airhorn, listen to the siren, run the waterhose, fill back up with the hydrant, and even wear their hat. I cannot thank these incredible men enough for being so wonderful to my son. We were all worn out from working all day and the last thing we wanted was to come home to a power outage. Liam still talks about those firemen. They are famous in our house. It turned out to be an amazing night! Thank you so much to our neighborhood heros!
“Believe in what your heart is saying,
Hear the melody that’s playing.
There’s no time to waste,
There so much to celebrate.
Believe in what you feel inside,
Give your dreams the wings to fly.
You have everything you need, if you just believe.”
This past January, Liam turned two. We celebrated with a magical Polar Express themed birthday. Liam beamed with pure joy and had all his best friends present. It brings tears to my eyes to think that he is growing so quickly. Seeing him light up on this very special day made all the work so incredibly worth it! If you would like to read the entire story… keep watching here.

This weekend we attended a very best friend’s 3rd birthday. The kids flew like superman down the slides, climbed like spider man through the mazes and ladders, bounced around like batman and ate like the incredible hulk. It was the perfect, energy packed birthday! The scene was perfectly set with designs from Nicole Smith Designs. (invitations, water bottle labels, happy birthday banner, and snack labels). Mom truly made her little super hero’s birthday one to remember! Happy Birthday N.
This week we dusted off our boots and kicked off the Rodeo season here in Houston, Texas. It is one of my favorite times of the year and I hope to gather a few glimpses of my little cowboy. Yee Haw! (Sorry for the grain, but when the lights go out… sometimes the Nikon D90 and moon just doesn’t cut it.. come on D800)
Don’t forget to check out the other glimpses projects on the Chic Critique Forum! We are having so much fun!
ChristineB - So cool! Looks like you have some awesome neighborhood firemen. What a lucky boy!!
