2 A.M. Wake Up Call

I don't think I've ever been as scared as I was last night. Somehow our house alarm went off at 2 am this morning! Now just think about it . . . you're sound asleep and suddenly your alarm is going off in the wee hours of the morning. Of course we were scared to death, but my first instinct was to get it shut off so it didn't wake the kids. In hindsight, had it been a real emergency, that probably wasn't the smartest move, but thankfully everything was okay and the kids slept through it all! After Dave checked the house, I called the monitoring station to make sure they weren't sending the police, but today I have a few other calls to make to figure out what happened! Let's pray that never happens again . . .

oh gosh! That would be scary! Our alarm malfunctioned about a week after we had it turned on, but it was during the day not in the middle of the night! Glad everything is okay!

The first night we spent in our house after our honeymoon, our alarm went off in the middle of the night. It was crazy! Our problem was the house was new construction and it was the first time we turned the heat on and it set the smoke alarms off, which triggered the house alarm. Hope you find out what triggered it.
