We got to go up to Tacoma for a second weekend in a row. Max got some feedback from the Tacoma fire department and they invited him to come do a practice physical and turn in a hiring packet. This is no guarantee of hire but it does mean he made it to the next level. Now we just wait to see if they want him back for the official physical, then the chief interview then an official position. Yup it's a long and competitive process but he has a lot of good things going for him so we'll just have to wait and see. He did great on the practice physical. he is supposed to do all these crazy strenuous tasks in 7 minutes and 30 seconds. He did them all in 6 minutes and 15 seconds. Thata boy!! He even slipped (it was raining) while hauling a huge fire hose across the fire grounds but was able to get back up quickly and keep going. A very difficult task seeing as he lost all his momentum. Anyway, I'm really proud of him.
A perk of our frequent visits to Tacoma and why it would be wonderful to eventually live there are these girls. My beautiful nieces. They are growing up so fast!
