Family and friends are THE most important things in our lives. We wanted to start a blog as a way to keep in touch with family and friends. We will try our very best to keep you updated on our lives, and we would love to hear from you as well. Please feel free to post comments and let us know what is going on in your life as well. We are fortunate to have so many people who we love and love us in return. However, unfortunately you all don't live as near as we'd like. We hope this is a way to make you feel closer to us.

Fireman Mike



What's the scariest thing you can think of if you're 2 years old? Hmmm monsters in the closet or under the bed, the dark, loud sounds or ........Firemen? Picture this scenario. Grandpa Heyer bought Ry a "big girl bed" for Christmas, but looking at it, napping in it and jumping on it are much easier than sleeping through the night in it. Needless to say we've tried different tactics to get Ry to sleep in the bed without escaping into our bed in the night. She's even figured out how to dismantle the child "safety locks".

So one night Mama Cole decided to read books and lay in bed with Ry until she fell asleep until we heard some weird noises coming from outside the door. No monsters here, just Fireman Uncle Mike, O2 tank and all. Mike is training at the Fire Academy and had just received his gear from class and wanted to try it out, and who better on than an already terrified 2 year old?
