Finally, a friend (who also happens to be an electrician) came by to check it out. Thankfully (because I don't enjoy looking totally stupid), he was also stumped and started to do some investigating. He figured out that the problem was starting with the small night lights installed on the stairway.

He took off the cover and this is what he found ...

Thanks right, folks. Someone was using the night light as a PIGGY BANK. WTF, Firestarter ... I mean, Anabella? Sure, throw some coins into an electrical outlet. I'm sure that won't be a problem.
The yellow arrows are pointing to the places where two of the coins had almost fused together from the sparks/fire/whatever was going on each time we tried to turn the breaker back on.
Between the poop and the cussing and now the electricity stunt, Anabella is going to make me old and gray long before my 40th birthday.

That's what you get for having those fancy-pants stair night lights!
I'm really, truly LOLing on this one! Gotta love that kid!
That's scary - people tell me that US electricity systems are nowhere near as safe as ours, but I'm sure that even the best standards are probably no match for a child's ingenuity.
HA! That's hilarious! I mean it wouldn't have been if something had caught on fire and anything bad happened. But since it didn't... hilarious! I just love kids imaginations!
Quesiton is... how are you going to get her to stop depositing her loot?!?!
you should be glad she's a saver and not a spend thrift
Our kids should NEVER meet... the result could be catastrophic!
That is very impressive. I wonder where else she's hidden her stash. That cannot be her only treasure trove.
