So heres what happened......
It started getting cold here in Utah and now that we have a house with a fire place, I thought It would be a great idea to have a fire last Monday night. I called Kyle and told him to find some fire wood at work and bring it home. Well, we started building the fire right before One Tree Hill came on and I threw in some newspaper and then Kyle did the rest. Well, I'm from Florida so of coarse I don't know much about all this stuff, I knew Kyle would have it under control. So he lights the match and we have a fire. Well.....he starts saying...WOW, this is creating a lot of smoke Heather, I wonder why!? So the house continues to fill with smoke and I went running around opening up all windows and doors even though it was 30 degrees out side. Well, we have this security system in our house that we don't pay for but it is still activated. The alarm started going off and shouting...FIRE....ALERT...FIRE! Dang it! They automatically send a response crew out every time the alarm goes off. Ya, so first the officer arrives and checks on us and few seconds later we hear ALL the sirens going off. As they are pulling up, I'm motioning to them to go and everything is fine. Well, they came in and the house is filled even more with smoke. One of the Firefighters says to me, "Hey, do you work at the ER?" Oh great, I'm going to be the joke around the hospital. Anyways, so they bring out their huge fan and blow out all the smoke. In the mean time, we found out that we didn't open the Flue in the fireplace which is what allows all the smoke to exit the house. DUH............ My house was a mess so I'm trying to clean as they are going in and out of the house. So embarassing I tell ya. I'm still laying low when I see Orem Fire come into the ER. hahaha.
I was excited so I was taking pictures.
We were so proud until.......
Dang it...the Fire Department :(
Some were laughing at us....some were NOT!

Ha ha ha, that is such a funny story! The way you were running around cleaning, that is so something I would do. Shove it all in the closet. See, we would've been so caught though, due to some of the things in our room...I need to be more careful!
Haha! I LOVE it! I wish I was your neighbor so I could have been near all the excitment.
Great story! Now that you mention it, one of the Orem guys did come in and tell us about the crazy couple that didn't know to open the Flue to burn a fire!!! (just kidding!!)
