Unfortunately weekends must come to an end.

I had a 50/50 weekend. Saturday was fun. I spent the day with my boyfriends family and watched him partake in a Fire Explorers Muster. He even made it into the online photo album of the local news paper.

See! Thats him lifting tons of hose!

Unfortunately we missed out on seeing that event ourselves, but it involves hauling all that hose up a few flights of stairs. The down side is that that for the 3 hours we were there to watch, we only saw them do 2 of their 6 events. The company he was in charge of (B Company) placed 5th overall! (A Company got 3rd overall) His company also won 1st for the spirit award. They also got awards as a team for individual events(Mass Causality Incident), and also as individuals for fastest times. Andrew had 4th in Hydrants, and a few other awards for time. The only down side is that they were disqualified from one of the 6 events (and still placed 5th overall!). During the search and rescue event he forgot to go on air. If they hadn't been disqualified they would have placed second in the event, and it probably would have moved them up overall. But regardless they did great and I am uber proud of him for doing so well and leading his team to 5th place!
