Unexpected Christmas Guests

There was a little bit of excitement at the Perez home today.  During Christmas dinner our carbon monoxide detector went off.  Mario kept pushing the silencer button so we could finish our dinner, but it kept going off.  So finally Mario sent us all out of the house and the fire department was called.  

My poor dad has been dreading coming to Monterey because it is so chilly here.  We assured him we would keep the house nice and toasty warm.  Within a few hours, we had all the windows open and we had to vacate.  He was so cold.   Good thing we are moving to a warmer climate soon. 

Our house was fine.  We don't know if it was a false alarm or a problem with our oven.  But the firemen came and were gracious enough to pose for pictures with Erin and then let her climb into their truck.
