Casey and both have so many memories of real fireplaces. I remember living in Corsicana having a real fireplace and Santa would loose his boot in it every year. Casey shares stories with the boys of Mamaw's Eclairs. By the way Mamaw I don't suppose you still have those wooden sticks. We would LOVE to make them. Don't get me wrong we have thoroughly enjoyed our electric fireplace. Just flip a switch and see and feel fire. But we did miss the "real" fire feeling. There is more work and clean up but there are so many more rewards.
Parker was excited to help carry in firewood with daddy. Thanks Dandy for sharing your firewood! We will always remember our first fire (in the fire place haha) in our home.
I was cooking dinner while Casey was making the fire. I looked over and Paxson
(I mean mini Spidermann. Thanks Gammer for the costumes.) was curled up next to it.
Paxson enjoying a smore. :)
Parker roasting marshmellows! He will be a pro in no time.
i can't wait to see more pics of the new house! how many bedrooms, baths, other features, etc.?
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful fireplace!!! We love a "real" fire too! Before kids it would get cleaned out at the end of winter. After kids, it gets cleaned out the next time we need a fire which usually means there are always ashes in the fireplace even in summer! ;)
ReplyDeleteWOW! What an amazing fireplace! I can't wait to see the rest of the house!
