Um...The Smoke Detector....Works!

So last night Brett and I actually had the house to ourselves! Miracle! It was my mom's birthday, so we took her out to dinner. After dinner she met up with some old friends who happened to be in town this weekend. So she left at 8 and we had an evening alone. Of course, we took the opportunity to have some romantic time. We turned on the fireplace and lit some candles. We were playing a game with the lights out and all of a sudden...

Beep, Beep, Beep...

We immediately started running around opening windows and doors and trying to find where the heck the smoke detector was. I had never really thought about that. I would recommend finding those when you move into a new place. You all probably do that already and I am the one learning the lesson the hard way. Oh well. Brett found it and was able to turn it off after a couple of minutes.

This was actually kind of ironic as we had been joking around with my mom earlier about setting off the smoke alarm because of the number of candles we had to put on her birthday cake. He He.
