1st Everett Firefighter Breakfast

Matt has now been with the Everett Fire Department for just over 2 months. On June 18th the EFD held their annual family breakfast at the fire station on Madison. Matt was there bright and early to help with the prep work. As a probie it was expected that he would be assisting on his day off but he didn't mind. The kids and I arrived at the breakfast just after 9 and it was amazing to see so many firefighters and their families. Matt has transitioned from a FD of 10 to one of 174. This has been a big change. We were welcomed with open arms and I had the chance to meet many of the guys that he is now working with.
A bounce house was planned but due to the rain it didn't get set up. However, there was a station with firefighter gear sized for the little ones. Griffen had a great time trying on the bunker gear and was so proud to look like Matt.
We had a great time getting to know everyone and the blueberry pancakes were amazing!
