Shout out to the Parker Fire Department

We wanted to publicly thank the Parker Fire Department for coming to our rescue on Saturday morning...and not breaking down our door and saving us some money! :) Here is the scoop. Erik, Avery, Karson and I were outside doing our usual Saturday routine of mowing the yard, trimming the flowers and planting some things. We put Addie down for her morning nap then we all head outside. This morning about halfway through Karson decides to lock the door in the garage and then head on outside. He just realized he can lock doors, so why not? Long story short we are all locked outside while Addie is peacefully sleeping in her crib. We try all of the doors and windows and our neighbor tries all he can think of as well. Learning from those around me I decide to not call my Dad to hack down our door (I saw that damage @ Britta's house and need none of that there!) and tried some locksmiths to come and remedy the situation. We had about 30-45 min till Addie would be up so I wasn't too panicked. Until no one answered their phone I called, and the locksmith that did said he could make it out here in about 2-3 hours and that it may take about an hour. I started to panic a bit when I had to call 911 to reach the Fire Department. Thankfully they arrived to our house quickly without the sirens! They did an excellent job prying, cutting and sawing off the door handle with out totally breaking the door or the frame. They had originally come out with their axe but we were glad they changed their mind :). Addie was just starting to stir in her bed by the time I got to her and the neighborhood kids were thrilled to see the fireman at work. What a day. Oh and yes we do now have a key available for us to use so this never happens again.
