Read more...Natalie turned 8 in February so she decided to be baptized and become a member of our church. It was a very special day for the entire family, especially because Grandma and Grandpa Heath were able to attend as well as Grandma Jean.
We downloaded the pictures to the camera today. Lets see if we can guess who has been playing with it.
Upside down on the couch. Could someone have been standing on their head with a camera?
Lights must have been out. 23 perfectly black pictures.
I think we have a clue....
More feet?
Getting warmer...
Gotcha!
He used 143 pictures. Good thing we don't have to pay for film anymore.
BRENDAN!!!!
So on Sunday Ezra had the brilliant idea to make cinnamon rolls. He has made them before, but this time things turned out a bit differently. As the rolls expanded, butter dripped onto the tinfoil in the bottom of the oven and started smoking. We opened all the windows and the kids were swinging towels around trying to get the smoke out.
Then before we knew it, flames were in the oven and making even more smoke. Luckily we pulled out the nearby fire extinguisher and put the fire out.
The worst part: The lost cinnamon rolls.
The funniest part: From the moment Ezra said fire, it took Brendan exactly .05 seconds to be out the front door and to the designated emergency meeting tree.
What we learned: We have 7 smoke detectors in our house and everyone of them works very well. Also, Summer can sleep through all 7 without waking up.
Fact #1: The smell of smoke can last in your house for at least two days (and counting).
Fact #2: Cleaning out the oven is worse than cleaning up any kid fluids.
The Best Part: An unforgettable lesson (including visual aids) in fire safety.
