Last night since daddy was at school late for a test, we decided to bake a Costco pizza for dinner. First of all that pizza is HUGE- and as we were just goofing around I hit the lock button on my oven. Well, if there is a lock button there should be an unlock button -right? No, no unlock button (first of all let me say that this oven has all the bells and whistles- a warming drawer, a bread proofer.....)
So me being the guineas that locked the oven thought that the internet would tell me how to unlock my oven- NOTHING! Remember Sean is at school taking a test, so I can't even send a 911 text. So my next thought was to push all the buttons on the oven and see what happens. (SMART I know) I can't make anything work except the oven light. The timer now goes off- I had set it so I had about 5 extra minutes. My theory on the timer going off and it unlocking was wrong as well!
Now, I am running around trying to find the owners manual, Z. is crying, A. is crying, I am going to pee my pants. In my minds eye I can see the fire truck in front of our house, because I locked the stinkin' pizza in the oven and it burned down the house. I finally pick up the phone and call my dad- he should know a thing or two about ovens. As all his best ideas were coming to an end, and the pizza crust was getting really brown he says "What happens if you push the lock button down for a really long time?" (by the way I had done this several times all ready) But I decide what the crap, I'll hold it down for 5 minutes if I have to. 1 minute- seriously 1 whole minute into pushing the button- the oven starts beeping, and flashes a "Door Unlocked" at me- but no the door was NOT unlocked. 30 seconds later the entire oven was off no light, Nothing- and finally my oven door was unlocked.
I had defeated the Kenmore Elite, GO ME! GO ME!! Oh, and the best part was the the pizza was a little crispy, but still GREAT! Hope your dinner last night was a little less eventful.

You and your dad VS the oven! That's a show I would definitely pay to see.
(glad there were no firetrucks involved.)
Thanks! I needed a good laugh today!
At least you didn't burn the pizza! Haha. You think they would make Ovens where you wouldnt waste so much time trying to figure out how to work them!
You know, you should've asked David how to turn it off, our kids get all that button pushing stuff. By the way Trace asked to play with David the other day, so when your in town we gotta do some catchin' up. Plus I gotta rub that belly!
Nice work Amy. We could make a deal, Your oven for mine. I can't believe you didn't call me. I thought for sure I would be on your list before your dad. I would have given you some lame answer like turn it off:) Anyway, hope you guys are doing well and we hope you had a good Turkey Day.
