Fire by our house

So last night (the 20th) an office building just down our street a bit caught on fire. It was all over the news and everyone was worried that we were getting all the smoke at our house. We weren't! It was blowing the other way. But Jake took the two older kids down the street to watch because as a child he has seen a fire and it made a huge impact on his life. He wanted the kids to have that experiance. So following this is a little video he took of them while watching the flames. I drove by this afternoon, and they still have most the road blocked off and firemen are still there with their hoses going. I am amazed that it is still smoking a bit. OH, I almost forgot the funniest thing! While they were watching, Lydia laid her head on Jake's shoulder and said, batting her big brown eyes, "Daddy, this is my first fire!" So funny!!!
