This is what we do for excitement?!

Now that it is getting colder we have been having fires in the wood stove. Nothing is better! I love almost everything about having a fire, the smell of a fire going, the warmth, the gathering of the family, the lower power bills... until it gets a little too toasty and I have to vacuum from all the little wood chips.

It is really cold downstairs and due to my ..uhm frugal nature, I don't want to turn the heater on downstairs, so we gather in the living room and get a little silly and creative.. Here is Keagan being silly w/ his pajama pants. Not sure what he is doing,but as usual he was making us laugh!

So lately I have been spending less time on the computer (the computer is downstairs, too) and more time ready, see having a fire going has all kinds of advantages!
