two alarm

this shouldn't surprise you but this is what we woke up to this morning:

FALLS CHURCH, Va. (WUSA) - Fairfax County Fire and Rescue are on the scene of a two alarm house fire in the 2200 block of Highland Ave in Falls Church. Fire officials tell 9NEWS NOW the fire broke out shortly after 5am. The fire is believed to have started in the basement of the home and was being fed by a gas line. A family member smelled smoke, woke everyone up in the house and escaped unharmed.No injuries have been reported at this time.

this was about 3 houses down from us. it was a very noisy morning. there were helicopters and about 15-20 firetrucks and ambulances. they had our driveway blocked off and the streets were closed to traffic. i tried to take some pictures before i left for work this morning but come to find out, you have to have your memory card in your camera to actually take pictures. duh,meg. so it looks like things will be ok.
