Fire!!



Vienna is now 6 months old as of yesterday afternoon. Her personality is blooming more everyday. She wrinkles up her nose and breaths loud through her nose when she is excited about something. I am going to try and catch it on video one of these days. It's funny.

This morning we were sitting in the family room and we heard a pop. I said, "what was that?" We paid it no mind, and then a minute or two later we heard crackling and popping. Kyle looked outside and he saw smoke. He left the room and I looked out there and I saw flames through the bushes. I picked up the phone to call 911 and Kyle grabbed it from me and then mumbled something, threw it on the couch and said, "Call 911" I snapped, "That is what I was trying to do?" lol. I call 911 and the fire is moving fast. Kyle is outside keeping the fire way from the fences with the water hose. The Firemen got here 5 minutes or so later and put it out. It burned 60-70 feet across the back of our house. I am so glad we were here. No one else noticed it. Kyle said he put flames out next to the fence. The pictures aren't the best. I didn't want to get in their way.











My exposure was wrong for this picture, but the back there used to be 8 feet tall blackberry bushes. :( Now they are gone. No more privacy.
