Adam, Go out and check it again. If you filled it to the full mark when cold, and it is now hot, the engine will have pushed excess coolant into the overflow bottle. As the engine cools, it will draw the coolant back in. The other possibility is a blown head gasket, but we don't want to think negative thoughts on a pleasant Saturday morning, do we?
