My Future Husband, My Hero

Travis was "savin' lives and breakin' hearts" all over the place on Sunday. There was a big fire in Canmore. A house near completion in the Three Sisters, worth $1.8 million went up in flames. No one was hurt, except for some minor heat exhaustion in one of the firefighters. When Travis gets a fire page and runs out of the house I always turn on his radio and listen to what happening for a bit just so I know he's ok. On Sunday I was listening to his radio when they said there was a firefighter down. I swear my heart stopped for a second then panic set in. It was the worst feeling ever. They were pretty quick to say that their status was "green" meaning they were stable and not badly injured but I wasn't totally at ease until Travis called a few hours later. Every time he goes out to play with fire I'm naturally a little worried but confident that he'll be ok. This was the first time someone was hurt and it's changed everything for me. It's going to take a little while for me to feel at ease again when he leaves the house. Here's a few pics from his exciting day.
