I wrote an entry yesterday, but I accidently erased it and didn't have enought time to type it out again. So now I will try this again for the 2nd time.

Easter was fun, The Munchkin oohed and awwed over her colorful basket of goodies, then we drove over to my dads, about a 45 minute drive, picking Andrew up on the way there. The food was delicious.

The downside of Easter is that we left my dads house without our car, and for the stupidest reason ever. A car alarm nightmare. Our freaking car alarm went off and disabled the ignition. Its an after factory alarm and we could not find the override switch. After throughly searching the car, we tried unlocking and locking the doors, putting the key in the ignition, looked under the hood etc.

It lets out this shrieking piercing sound, loud enough to make a persons ears bleed. It's a quiet neighborhood. So yeah, my dads neighbors hate us now. We managed to find the alarm fuse and yanked it out to make the noise stop, but we still need to figure out how to disarm the alarm so we can start the car. *sigh* It's probably something really really simple. So simple that we will undoubtly feel like boneheads after this is all sorted out.

There is some light at the end of this tunnel, because yesterday we went back to try and get the car running and I found the name of the security company where the alarm was made and we also located the model number under the dash. It's CODE-ALARM. There is an 800 number we can call today during business hours. So instead of standing around and scratching our heads we'll get some answers today. Cheap answers I hope.
