One of our fire fighters had a birthday this past weekend. Which meant since he was the oldest in the department, he'd get a surprise party... Just because I had this cake (helmet) I wanted to try to make and besides, he's a very loved guy!!
Pay no serious attention to the round cake beside the helmet... it was there mainly because that little hat wasn't going to feed 30+ of us... and yes we surprised the 73 year old man!! His family came up and spent the evening with his "other family". That's how we roll... our department is a family... we have our squabbles... and yes we have to get out and make a living (bull bash).. but in the end we have each other's back as any other family would. If you don't believe me just show up at one of our calls... we even have a redheaded step child in the bunch....
