33 Years and Now It's the End

surprise!!!!!!

my kids with my dad :)

Well this is the year. The year my dad retired from the Garland Fire Department. 33 years he worked there!!! Isn't that crazy. He was a captain.....and EVERYONE loved him. Im sure he was the best fireman that Garland has ever had or ever will have. My mom put together a little surprise party for him on the last saturday he worked. It was really special. It worked out really well becuase when we showed up he was out on a run. The kids had a blast playing on all the workout equipment and the firetruck. It is so werid to know that we will never go up to his station anymore. I have been visiting Garland fire department stations for the past 31 years!!! But I guess you have to retire sometime?? But no fear....we will be visiting Carrollton fire department stations now :) So, now both my parents are reitred. Very weird. But I am happy for them :) I am so proud of my dad!!! And he will always be a fireman :)
