9/11 memorial stairclimb Dallas

on Saturday september 8 Cody took part in a 9/11 memorial stair climb in Dallas,TX. Along with 94 other firemen units. Their challenge was to climb 110 flights of stair in honor of those firemen who sacrificed their lives trying to rescue those still in the twins towers not knowing that the towers were about to fall. Each fireman represnted a fallen hero. I was so proud of Cody for taking on that challenge.
Blaze was the Brave soul who woke up with us at 5:30am to go to Dallas. My other boys slept in. Oh well.
Going up the stairs
Blaze trying his best at the bounce house
All done and wiped out
Proud Dad and son Here is the some of the Melissa Fire Department. Maybe we will make it a yearly thing?
They are all wiped out, but was so worth it
Blaze furture firemen??? It was a great day seeing firemen from all over Texas come together for one day to pay tribute to those who have fallen. Only firemen go running in when everyone else is running away, true hero's!!
A day we should never forget. Side note Cody has been serving the Melissa Fire department for 9 years. He is a Captian and loves serving the citzens of Melissa, Texas.
