Spanish Fork Fire Department is celebrating it's 100th anniversary this month. Today they had a parade with fire trucks and engines and ambulances from all over the state. Nate got to drive the engine from Provo (see above photo). Trey and I went down to watch. To start the parade Life Flight flew their helicopter over the parade route a couple times very low and slow. Trey love helicopters! We live very close to a hospital so we get to see them often, and he LOVED that part of the parade. Next came all the fire vehicles with their horns and sirens going full blast. Trey was terrified! I had to hold him and cover his ears the whole time and if I moved even a little to readjust he would tighten his grip like his life depended on it. Towards the end I think started to like it because he started to wave to the people on the trucks and engines, but he never let go of me.
Before the parade started when only the helicopter had gone by and we were still having fun.
Here's Trey holding on to me while the parade went by. It was very loud, I would have been scared at his age.
The had several really old vintage trucks in the parade too. These are some of the cooler ones.
The plan was to have 100 vehicles for a 100 years, I'm not sure if they made it, but they probably came really close.
After the parade we went to the park where the it ended. We said hi to Dad, had some cake and got to see all the engines up close. Good times!
