We love fire alarms!!!

Right now I can't think of anything more annoying than what happened at our house last night at 3:20 am. I was awakened by the high pitched beeping of the lovely fire alarm all through out my house. Funny thing my firefighter husband was at work. So I jumped out of bed, dialed 911, and smelled around the cold house a bit. As I talked to the 911 operator with my shakey voice all I found was three kids sound asleep, no smoke, and luckilly my bra and clothes before the fire department arrived. Ha ha! I waited outside and when they pulled up one of the firefighters asked ,"What's going on? Haven't we been here a couple of times?" Yes they had because Kenzie pushed the fire button on the alarm pad.....twice! How embarrassing! Kelly is a firefighter and I have heard his stories about the dumb calls they have to go on. Here we are on our third time calling the fire department to rescue us....NOT! So they took a look around and then tried to figure out how to shut it all off on the alarm pad. To make a long story short we got ahold of the alarm company, and after messing with everything I decided to go take a quick look at the smoke detectors. The firefighters had already checked them, but I thought it was worth a try. Sure enough the detector in my room was blinking red, and all they had to do was take it off and change the battery. I was so grateful they came to help because who knows what I could have done myself. Probably just sit and cry! Well I guess it's time to change our batteries in all of the smoke dectors. So to anyone who reads this make sure you change yours about every six months (Kelly Said) or you could be awakened by the most horrible screaching you might have ever heard. I'm glad I'm not deaf, but I sure was beginning to wonder. Oh, one more annoying thing I can think of is that I'm growing right out of all my clothes. GREAT! Four weeks from tomorrow!
